📢 November 2026 #MastodonDesignAnnouncement
Dear members,
A week late, here is the November announcement. Even though the world is in a bad state, the youth movement here in France and the recent election results in Brazil and the midterms give me hope. Resistance is organizing everywhere, and the Fediverse is part of it. Let’s go!
