We are excited to share that we are beginning work on a new onboarding experiment for #Mastodon: Default Server Recommendations.
-
The Default Server Recommendations experiment is a first step in reimagining how Mastodon onboarding & server discovery work.
Our team’s intent is to work with the community to build new onboarding pathways that support the entire network.
We can’t wait to get started 💜

@Mastodon Excellente idée
-
@Mastodon Really great news 😍
-
@Mastodon Seems like a good idea.

@Mastodon
Cool that you crowdsource.
But no need to use g forms and then apologize for it.
I like to use https://framaforms.org/ -
@Mastodon do you mean entirely open sign-ups (i.e. prone to spam accounts) or accepting sign-ups that get manually approved by a human?
-
@Mastodon
Interesting experiment!
Before I fill in the form:
Is there anything in particular that should be done or followed-up server/admin side for this? -
@NoOnesRival
Yes I am talking to them about this right now at #fosdem #mastodon
@Mastodon -
@Mastodon why is geography important?
-
@Mastodon good idea!
"Correct language": Does it mean the favourite language that people choose individually in their preferences (but for which they need an instance) or official language of a country/region? Asking for all the multi-language migrants, bilingual regions, and foreign-language prefering people. -
@Mastodon The bad news: i ended up on the server of some power-hungry warlord everyone in the know woulda told me not to join
The good news: they live only 200 kilometers away from me -
@FediTips you should boost this to the admins of servers you have recommended on http://fedi.garden

@Mastodon This is a link to the server covenant:
One important question – and one we’ve discussed together – is which definition of antisemitism are you going with? I’d appreciate it if you could state the decision you’ve reached on this publicly. Crucially, is it one that conflates opposition to Zionism, Israel, and the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people with being bigoted against Jewish people or not? This is key in knowing whether only Zionist, pro-Israel, pro-genocide Mastodon servers will be featured in recommendations or not.

@Mastodon besides geographical location, are there going to be any filters for like, interests or core topics etc?
A gardening and plant instance is going to have a different vibe from the software/hardware developer instance, etc.
It would be neat to be a part of this, but only if relevant users/signups are being directed.
Edit: "General Purpose Servers" ah.. missed that keyword (figured that would've been mentioned again earlier?). /ht: https://tyrol.social/@nitrml/115989922418887309

@aral for us in Canada, we align with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and still are green in terms of the Covenant.
There's protected speech, and there's unprotected speech, and that is what we abide by.
Being a purely geographical instance, I know we enjoy being able to defer these decisions.

@Mastodon google docs wtf?!... switch asap to Cryptpad comrades for stuff like this
