Fork it! It's time for a Mastodon hard fork

https://privacy.thenexus.today/mastodon-hard-fork-2

A Mastodon hard fork that focuses on safety, community, accessibility, and working well with others has a great opportunity to improve safety in the fediverse, the dynamics of the Mastodon ecosystem, and fediverse software development in general. #ForkIt!

Potentially interested in getting involved? See the polls in the replies!

Contents

Part 1

  • A missing fork in the landscape* Okay, but why a hard fork?* There's a big elephant in the federated room (and I don't mean Mastodon)* An opportunity for broad participation and a cultural reset

Part 2

  • Safety is an especially good area to focus on* There are also a lot of other areas for improvement

Part 3

  • It's not as easy as it sounds ...* But it's not like it defies the laws of physics!* What about funding?* Make sure most of the funding goes to Black, Indigenous, Muslim, trans, queer, and disabled people

Part 4

  • It's not an either-or situation* A lot of open questions - and a lot of potential upside* Stay tuned!

There's a lot to discuss here, so this is a looong post. If there are some sections that interest you more than others feel free to skip around.
