  Wow, this is very interesting. Smalltown is a new fork of Mastodon specifically for civic communities looking to host their own social media. It is being developed at Ethan Zuckerman’s lab at UMass Amherst.https://publicinfrastructure.org/2022/09/28/welcome-to-smalltown/(It’s (1/2)

- #SocialCoop I just made a simple change to the instance to make Mastodon multi-column mode "make sense" in https://social.coop, meaning use up all space instead of having weirdly narrow columns.See before/after if interested, let me know if you have any issues! You can try it by enabling multi-column mode in your preferences.h/t testman42@github.com for the workaround: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/8632#issuecomment-850335649

- #socialcoop wdyt about the update to Mastodon v4 overall? My take: some people have noticed unexpected UI changes (I myself don’t like the new ‘create account’ flow too much for example), but overall it seems like an improvement and I’m happy we’re now finally up to date and tracking upstream.

- #socialcoop could be in https://joinmastodon.org/servers if we want to. I think we would need to do two things:1. Sign the [[mastodon covenant]], being https://joinmastodon.org/covenant, which looks reasonable.
  2. Relax registrations to ‘invite only’, as discussed earlier in https://www.loomio.com/d/zoWFc7mR/relax-instance-registrations-to-approval-required-for-sign-up-from-current-nobody-can-sign-up-.What do you think?
