Looks like my next instance will be one of these three:
social.tchncs.de
Tech oriented.
toot.community
Good general instance.
ieji.de
User privacy is a priority.
All three have very reasonable about/rules. Anyone have any ideas?
À toutes et tout mes followers, je vais bientôt changer d'instance Mastodon, @zaclys ne souhaitant pas continuer la sienne.
Avez-vous des suggestions d'instances françaises à me recommander ?
Merci !
A friend asks: what's a good instance for (nice) cis het people that he can direct his friends to?
Must be friendly to neurospicy.
What ieji.de has to offer:
Unparalleled performance (80x3Ghz CPU, 256GB RAM, 4TB nvme, 10gbit net),
Total obfuscation of your IP and accessible via Tor network,
Open federation policy,
Unpopular opinions welcome(as long as they are not unlawful),
Moderated against harassment, spam and other unwelcome actors,
Blocks bluesky bridges and threads,
Offers all Mastodon extras, like translation and search.
Feel free to join us in our effort to make this #instance an enjoyable #Mastodon experience.
LOR.SH - IS SHUTTING DOWN SOON
As has already been stated in announcements, this will happen in a couple of months.
Because of this, I've noticed more than once that everyone is creating threads like "where do we go now."
Since I have a pretty decent outreach, I propose creating the ultimate "where do we go now" thread.
In it, I suggest: Discussing what to do next and why there's no need to panic
Where you can register a new account
How you can "migrate" to a new account
Discussing hosting your own personal server
If possible, bringing up any questions not yet addressed in this thread that may be bothering you
I also suggest using the hashtag #LorshMigration for anyone who wants to talk about this now or find each other after the server shuts down, in case something goes wrong. I'm already following it and posting under it with my thoughts on the move or sharing useful info.
If you'd like, you can participate in a subthread for a "census" of people who've moved, stating where you moved from and where to.
Please remember that this thread is not communication with support staff, but just a chat with people who decided to help out on their own initiative.
Thanks to all the users. I wish you all a cozy new home.
DON’T FORGET that Mastodon has a migration feature, and you can take all your followers with you. You don’t need to start from scratch and lose your connections! To learn more – keep reading the thread!

LOR.SH - ЗАКРЫВАЕТСЯ
Как уже было написано в объявлениях, это произойдёт через пару-тройку месяцев.
В связи с этим я уже не первый раз вижу то как все создают треды "куда бежать".
Так как у меня достаточно неплохой "outreach", предлагаю сделать ультимативный тред "куда бежать".
В нём предлагаю: Обсудить что теперь делать и почему не нужно паниковать
Где можно зарегистрировать новый аккаунт
Как можно "переехать" на новый аккаунт
Обсудить хостинг своего персонального сервера
По возможности обсудить не поднятые в этом треде вопросы, которые вас волнуют
Также предлагаю хэштег #LorshMigration для тех, кто хочет сейчас что-то обсудить по теме или после закрытия сервера найти друг друга если что-то пошло не так. Я уже подписан на него и сам пишу под ним посты о своих впечатлениях о переезде или делюсь информацией по теме.
Если есть желание можете поучаствовать в субтреде переписи переехавших указав откуда и куда вы переехали.
Пожалуйста, помните, что этот тред - это не общение со службой поддержки, а просто переписка с людьми, которые по своей инициативе решили вам помочь.
Всем пользователям lor.sh - спасибо. Желаю вам найти себе уютное новое пристанище.
НЕ ЗАБЫВАЙТЕ, что в Mastodon есть функция миграции и вы можете унести всех подписчиков с собой. Начинать жизнь на новом сервере с нуля и терять связи - не нужно! Чтобы узнать подробнее - читайте тред дальше!

Does anyone know anything about the #news site https://www.europesays.com/ or the corresponding closed #mastodon #instance https://pubeurope.com/ ?
To me it appears to be fully #AIgenerated news #content and a mastodon #server with 75 accounts dedicated to distributing links to the content with country and topic specific #hashtags.
So far, so normal in 2025, I guess. But I'm a bit distrustful of content creators that do not provide any information whatsoever about what kind of organisation or individuals are behind it, escpecially for news or political content.
https://mastodon.social/search?q=pubeurope.com&type=accounts
is there a mastodon instance for film editors / cinema industry people ? I'd like to recommend some instances to an older friend who is interested in joining the fedi but unsure of some of the initial joining process
Lil notice: I'd like to switch to my mas.to account instead of this one, after some time comparing.
If you follow me here, please follow me @resl@mas.to now? I'm going to take this move nice and slow... Thanks!
@FediThing Thank you!
Another possibility to discover people on a server is also to look at the servers about-page at the members. If they are not public have a look at their profiles directory stream.

Instance updated to 0.18.3 #gotosocial #gotosocialadmin #instance #instanceadmin
I am once again asking for your recommendations for a #mastodon #instance to jump ship towards. Taking a break from #bluesky has highlighted the issues I had when this was my only form of social media.
Now that my local feed has more bots than my federated feed, I think it's time. Also, someone else's instance has apparently flagged mine, so it caused a warning every time they interacted with me.
I know about https://instances.social/ . It lacks criteria I need. I can't search for >500 chars
Well, just a few hours after I posted the above, queer.party once again went down for what seemed an entire day. I think it's time to move. I have a backup account on famichiki.jp, but I am looking for #recommendations for a reliable and truly inclusive (anti-racist) #instance.
@lindenshieldarts Here you can search #servers by character limits and language: https://mastodon.help/instances/en You can even try your topics in the 2nd field ("contain).
@alexlunaview
Please think about: the #Fediversum is a gigantic #Network from privat accounts. #Mastodon is one #instance of them. There are not algorithems to spreed your #toots, only #RT/ #Retoots gives them spreeding around the world. So please, spreed what you like, to give the network power ;)
@IDee
I am creating a series of #videos about the #OpenWebCalendar which you can embed into your #website with privacy and customization features. I wanted to use @peertube but I do not have an instance for that. Who could I ask, is there an instance that would host some technical tutorials?
I use #youtube for now but I would like an #alternative here.
