A year ago, many people said this would never happen.

“The Fediverse can’t be monetized,” they said.

Now @medium has come along and monetized their Mastodon server.

Not only can the Fediverse be monetized, it’s being done by Twitter Co-Founder @ev (though @coachtony, amongst others, probably drove this initiative).

That’s symbolism for you!

An estimated 20 million plus people have died from #COVID-19.

Each year, 7 to 8 million people die from air pollution, at least 3.6 million due to fossil fuels.

Everyone has the right to breathe clean air, inside and outdoors.

We need to fight both COVID-19 and #climate change.

If Twitter is sinking like the Titanic, then Mastodon community servers are the lifeboats. And there are not enough lifeboats. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Don't just call people still on the Titanic foolish as you row away. Make more lifeboats, and make them easier to climb into! 👍🏿

@film_girl @Gargron @coachtony @medium importing posts is inevitable, I haven’t dug into it yet, it’s on my todo to look at how this could be done - but surely it can’t be too complicated… (we’ll see I guess)

this is incredible. Hanging solar panels a few meters above crops of tomatoes and jalapeños multiplied their yield 2-3x, used substantially less water, controlled temperatures, and increased the output of the solar panels pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2301 #science #solar #environment #agriculture

And “yes” is the answer.

To use the Oxford Comma, or not to use it, that is the question.
