There have been a few requests for more serious merch items (so not "Live, laugh, federate" and "I write alt text", though those definitely have their place). @npub1d495...6zn5 and I brainstormed a few messages we could put on t-shirts and I want to see how well they resonate with folks. Again, very non-committal.

You may have seen it over on @npub163hd...mv0n, but in case not: The new plushies are now live on the shop, alongside restocked and new mugs. Shipping to EU, UK, Switzerland, Norway, and the US. We decided to allow orders from the US, but shipping is what it is (from Germany).

This video brings me a lot of joy.

My top albums this year according to last.fm. I decided to limit this to one album per artist to fit a few more artists in.

Today I am stepping down from my role as the CEO of #Mastodon. Though this has been in the works for a while, I can't say I've fully processed how I feel about it. There is a bittersweet part to it, and I think I will miss it, but it also felt necessary. It feels like a goodbye, but it isn't—I intend to stay on and continue to advise the new leadership and contribute, because Mastodon—and the fediverse—is one of the very few beacons of hope for a better web.

We're almost sold out of enamel pins, so I'm thinking about what we could do next. @npub1d495...6zn5 and I brainstormed some slogans that we think might fit on a pin. Just testing the waters here.

There is a new "Share on Mastodon" button on the official @npub163hd...mv0n blog, feel free to try it out and let me know what you think.
