Creating a Mastodon account #33

Closed francoisgoupil closed 1 year ago

francoisgoupil commented 1 year ago

Given the recent news and the philosophy of Mastodon. We discussed the possibility of creating a Mastodon account for scikit-learn with @ogrisel. What do you think about it?

ogrisel commented 1 year ago

If we do, we will have to choose which server to use. Each server might have different moderation rules and hosting stability guarantees.

francoisgoupil commented 1 year ago

The Fosstodon server could be a suitable one. It is one recommended by Mastodon as "consistently committed to moderation against racism, sexism, and transphobia" and is dedicated to open source software.

ogrisel commented 1 year ago

Yes the fosstodon server sounds good.

The details about the server admin:

Note that it's an English-only server but this is fine for the scikit-learn account I think.

ogrisel commented 1 year ago

A bit of background of the load increase on fosstodon:

After the upgrade, it seems to be operating well again. If we locate the scikit-learn account there we should try to see if we could do a small regular donation to help with the hosting fees (e.g. from the numfocus account?).

I created an account, waiting to be reviewed by Fosstodon maintainers. pending_review_fosstodon
