i've sat on this #fosstodon take long enough. (narrator: it wasn't that long.) for real, though—if curating a community space to be safe for all of its members is a burden to you, don't do it to begin with. i made six points that community managers or moderators can learn from the mistakes of some #fediverse communities. let me know what you think:
the library of alexandra
Moderation.txt
in light of the fosstodon on the fediverse, , and the subsequent , there's a lot of talk of "lessons to be learned" without explicitly saying what...

in case anyone is curious about the status of Good Internet magazine: we're on track to send to the publisher next week, but we're looking at shipping magazines by the end of the month! SO EXCITING! <3 i had planned to send out pre-order emails, but i wasn't sure if this would be kosher or not, frankly. would love to get a pulse check from folks, since that would help offset the upfront cost of printing (as i am currently unemployed).
y’all - please stop supporting wordpress.org/com. stop recommending it to clients, stop making your business depend on it, stop telling newbies to build in #wordpress, and find alternatives like classicpress or any open-source project that’s actually open to well-intentioned feedback and genuine collaborative spirit without a fragile-ego dictator. wordpress runs over 30% of the internet, and the guy who runs it is clearly not able to do so with a clear head or emotional stability. you do not need wordpress. there are user-friendly, customizable CMS that’s a dime a dozen these days. you do not need wordpress. wordpress needs you.

The real impact of a WordPress ban
Joost de Valk and Progress Planner got banned from WordPress, and that&#039;s a big deal. And we shouldn’t allow ourselves to normalize it.

today is officially *THREE* weeks until the submission deadline for Good Internet magazine! Good Internet launches in May 2025. it's a volunteer-run, not-for-profit print and digital quarterly magazine for personal website owners and those interested in using the internet as a means of self-expression, art, and recreation. 🔍 we're looking for 1,500-4,000 word articles about anything related to that! you could write about: * #internet history * personal #websites * #accessibility on the #indieweb * finding inspiration for a #blog * #webdesign trends * running from the #enshittification of the #web * lessons or post-mortems from #webdev projects * news or overviews of #opensource projects if it relates to hobbies on "this side of the web," whether you call it the #smallweb or indieweb, we probably want to run it! you can have your article as low-media (meaning only text and images) or interactive, where you code an entire webpage to help tell your story. if you're interested in learning more, you can sign up for our email list for when we launch or you can check the submission guidelines @

this will likely be a recurring reminder as the weeks go by, but i'm so excited about this project. i have to share! (this is the first time i've been nervous to announce something on this side of the web!) i'm combining my 10 years of journalism experience with my love for the #indieweb by launching GOOD INTERNET, a regular periodical magazine in both print and digital formats. and this is a non-profit, completely independent endeavor!

 ultimately, Good Internet will cover a lot of different aspects of the small web: unplugging from the corporate web, fighting #enshittification, migrating from data-harvesting corpo social media, creating your own personal website, using code and website-building as an art form, federation, and creating websites for fun. it will be approachable for beginners and enjoyable for seasoned indie web travelers! the #smallweb can be hard to keep up with if you aren't "plugged in," especially if you want to find other hobby website owners, folks coding for fun, weird web projects, or artists taking back their digital ownership. it's overdue that this side of the web has an analog publication! having a central publication about the decentralized parts of the personal web makes me even more excited to share this hobby with those who might not even know about it--all within beautiful, high-res, high-quality pages. the idea here is to have a physical celebration of this hobby in addition to being informative, helpful, and accessible. consider signing up for email notifications when we launch the first issue in may 2025:
