Can these posts be found anywhere apart from patreon? Unfortunately patreon uses cloudflare to block Tor users, so when I visit the links to your posts I just see an Access Denied error message from cloudflare saying "The owner of this website (www.patreon.com) has banned the country or region your IP address is in (TOR) from accessing this website"
@adamsaidsomething No, but let me think on this

For my 70th birthday I would like #Native #Indigenous #BIPOC visibility on #Mastodon. e.g. an Indigenous/BIPOC topic and a https://TurtleIsland.social instance listing at Join Mastodon.
This is how I torture my family (feel complimented), I always want things money can't buy.
For over 3 years now @Tzipporah and I have been trying to build a vibrant thriving Native/Indigenous community on Mastodon. It's an uphill climb but we will not give up, we will succeed. We are glued to this concept.
Hi - I’m Hannah, I’m Mastodon’s new Community Director, I joined at the end of September.
First, thank you for your work to bring Indigenous/ BIPOC communities to #Mastodon and the #SocialWeb. I want to do everything I can to support you. I promise you that we will add this listing to join mastodon as soon as possible.
We have a significant backlog on the Server Directory, but we have a plan to fix it. Over the weekend we announced a first experiment in evolving onboarding (but it will not be the only one). Simultaneously we are starting to look at how to evolve the Server Directory too, including adding more kinds of server classifications or categories which can be used for other kinds of discovery methods. We also want to move the Server Directory to a PR-based backend so it’s more manageable to keep updated, and so the community can help us do it.
I am sorry we haven’t done this yet. We are working on it, and please do not hesitate to reach out to me to check in on progress. You can email me too: hannah[@]joinmastodon.org.
If you want to hear more, here is the talk where we announced the first experiment and shared more info about Server Directory (we will publish a blog post soon too). The relevant sections start at around 10:50.
