@barrengroundcoffeeI immediately want to thank you for your approach to building a relationship on Mastodon. It appears that you get the difference between social media and a community, and your question reflects how much respect you have for the platform. If I wasn't 4,000 kms away, you'd be my local coffee shop.How can you support your local Mastodon community? Promote nwt.social where possible. Encourage customers and other businesses to join Mastodon and focus your attention there instead of those other sites run by tech bros in another country. And don't forget to donate to nwt.social if or when Jeremy tells you he needs to pay a few bills or expand the service. Being a monthy donor to your local server keeps the lights on and the community connected. cc: @Jeremy
