I have just released Hometown v1.0.5+3.5.2!

No new features, just bringing things up to parity with the latest Mastodon v3.5.2. Lots of cool new features thanks to their team and contributors, though.

We will have some Hometown tweaks/fixes/features coming soon though!

If you run a #hometown server and would like to be added to the list of servers on the wiki, please let me know! (or add it yourself if you like but you need a github account)

The idea is to help people find Hometown servers to go to, and to help me get a sense of what kind of communities are using my software.

The EU just opened an official Mastodon server! https://social.network.europa.eu

Hi Mastodon! #introduction #mastoart

Years after my last post here, an #introduction

I’m an evolutionary biologist studying species interactions, especially mutualism. I particularly work with Joshua trees and their pollinators. I run a lot, I write, I look at plants. I expect I’ll post a lot about Star Trek.

Also just learned I’m one of the ten “most influential alumni” of the tiny Christian liberal arts college where I got my BSci, according to… this place? https://academicinfluence.com/schools/eastern-mennonite-university

from the join masto blog:

> The news of Elon Musk buying Twitter has put Mastodon into the public spotlight as an alternative social network, rapidly exploding our growth with over 30,000 new users in just a single day.

...are those numbers *just* mastodon.social / mastodon.online? I assume there's no way to count smaller instance enrollment

I should do an #introduction !
