Someone reminded me today 9 years ago I submitted my first post on Mastodon—using curl on the command line, since there was no interface at the time. That's how the journey began! 9 years is a long time to be doing something. Those early years are still fresh in my mind though.

in reply to Eugen Rochko • • •Greetings! Thank you for creating and releasing Mastodon for everyone to build communities, make connections, and support a decentralized Internet. I’m really curious about the long-term vision for Mastodon. As the network grows, what are some of the things the development team is most excited about building or improving, while still staying true to the principles of decentralization and user control?

Also, should we not be raving about ActivityPub getting more traction?
At the end of the day, none of us have to join threads, and those of us that are admins, can opt to block.
Edit: I forget users can block another instance from their account too.

in reply to Eugen Rochko • • •I have a dumb question or I may be bit data nerd, I will check Admin Docs.
How can I monitor how many new users joining in particular mastodon servers? I don’t own a server as of now. But I am thinking of hosting one. Can I export such data to my dashboard like Grafana for the servers I own and don’t own through any open API?
