Hi everyone! It's January so we're going to have another quick fundraiser.
We pay for the costs of running mas.to ourselves and are more than happy to do so! But of course if any of our users would like to contribute even that would make our lives easier 🙂
You can donate towards our running costs by PayPal:

or by Bitcoin:

Every little helps. Thank you!
Echoing that toot from @Gargron that I just boosted, the same applies here at mas.to. Please be mindful of the instance rules, and if you don’t feel they’re right for you remember that there are thousands of other instances, or you can start your own. That’s the beauty of the fediverse!

If for whatever reason you disagree with the rules on mastodon.social, Mastodon offers you a selection of 2,000+ other servers and the ability to start your own.
Cheers!

Similar to Twitterati on Twitter, what should folks on Mastodon should be collectively called :
We're going to use the following as our main Bitcoin address from now on.
Don't worry, our other one also works! But we'd prefer to use this one going forward:

We've already had one donation for which we're very grateful!
We provide mas.to as a free service and in the spirit of Mastodon that will never change. We will also always pay for mas.to ourselves, but any contributions are more than welcome!
To avoid spamming for donations we'll only send infrequent reminders of our PayPal and Bitcoin details.
Thanks for your feedback folks. We're going to run a trial of silencing three of the largest porn instances. This means their posts won't turn up in the federated timeline, but you can still follow and view users on those instances if you like.
(Our current settings on mas.to allow porn on the federated timeline, but obscure the images).
How do you prefer porn to be shown on the federated timeline?
Oops! We had a minor SSL certificate issue which is now fixed. Apologies for any inconvenience.

We've just carried out an essential infrastructure update. You might have experience a very brief outage this morning but everything's up and running again.
Hi folks, we’re investigating reports of performance issues. We’ve restarted the Mastodon service just in case.
