The world needs social sovereignty

We are excited to share a significant milestone for Mastodon.
Earlier this year, we announced a major restructuring, and today marks a pivotal moment. Our Founder, Eugen Rochko, is stepping down from his position as CEO. In his latest blog post (see comments), he reflects on the incredible journey of building and growing Mastodon. We are deeply grateful for his leadership and the community he has fostered, and we are pleased that he will remain with us in an advisory role.
As we look ahead, we are proud to introduce our new leadership team, led by Executive Director Felix Hlatky (our former CFO). This transition represents a crucial step toward community governance and collaborative decision-making, emphasising our commitment to building safe and resilient social spaces.
Now more than ever, we need to work together to build safe and resilient social spaces. We must build information networks that are resistant to billionaire control and surveillance. And it will take all of us working together to do that.

We’re excited to announce that Mastodon 4.4 is now generally available as an upgrade for all Mastodon servers. The update brings improvements to profiles, navigation, list management, media controls, server moderation notes, and more.
Mastodon 4.4 also contains the first part of our Quote Post implementation - display of incoming Quote Posts. Full support (including creation) will be part of the next version: Mastodon 4.5, coming later this year. We’re already hard at work on the next set of updates for that release.
We hope you’ll enjoy the enhancements in Mastodon 4.4, and we’re grateful for your support and feedback.

I assume the community is using the Open Source Hardware Logo as it looks technical?
Update to Lemmy 0.18?
I'd love to have TOTP support, any plan to move up to 0.18?
