Following the @EUCommission Tech Sovereignty and Open Source Strategy (and Mastodon’s direct mention within it!) announced this week…
Our team is proud to have signed and contributed to the drafting of the European Social Stack Open Declaration alongside our peers in the #SocialWeb and #Fediverse: @anewsocial, @eurosky.social, @newsmast, Save Social, and @swf.
We are a movement, and stronger together.
Read the declaration, add your signature, and share: https://european.social/
The @EUCommission just released a statement positioning open source as central to #Europe’s #TechSovereignty.
We couldn’t agree more. #OpenSource is critical to a robust and independent society.
Here’s our full statement: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/06/europes-new-tech-strategy-puts-open-source-front-and-centre/
#Mastodon #Fediverse #SocialWeb #OpenWeb #DigitalSovereignty
We’re kicking off a new series: Community Spotlights.
Through these stories, we celebrate the people who make the #SocialWeb a wonderful place to connect.
Our first subjects are @Tzipporah & @Yehuda, the grandfather & grandkid duo that admin #TurtleIsland, a server focused on building community with Native/Indigenous people, other BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, & People of Colour) people, and allies.
You heard it here first: Mastodon 5.0 (eta Oct-Dec 2026) will introduce major improvements to the core user experience. We're making Mastodon the most human-centred software on the #SocialWeb.
That’s where you come in.
Discovery Week 🗓️ 11-15 May 2026
Join our Head of Design @imanijoy for a jam-packed 5 day sprint inviting stakeholders from within and beyond Mastodon to weigh in on the future of the product.
