Mastodon shifts to nonprofit ownership, calls for $5M in donations to expand.

I honestly did not realize this was not already the case but it is a good move to make right now. Hopefully folks will start to recognize the Fediverse for what it is and can be and explore coming to the Activity Pub side over using Bluesky.

Could you edit the link so it doesn’t have the tracking information on it?

Not because of the tracking itself…it’s vague enough in this case not to be an issue. Just because keeping the canonical URL allows Lemmy to automatically detect when the post has been cross-posted to multiple instances, so we can see if/where it’s also being discussed.

No I get that, but for the software to pick it up properly you would need to use the “edit” button to amend the url in the post itself.

Yes, I’m not the creator of the post. I just thought I’d make it easy for them.
