I don't like the idea of giving extra money to my douchebag power company when I don't need to. Stupid mandated monopoly with mandated profit margin.

They also have an outer shell independent of the inner core machine.

Yes, it happens all the time, and it's easier if you're a soulless asshole.

Because both parties agreed to the contract, both the grifter and the grifted.

It must be pretty terrible to live in a country run by a horrible power-hungry fascist that most everybody hates. 😵‍💫

Switch to a credit union. If your bank is publicly traded then a portion of their profits are being syphoned away to rich douchbags, instead of services to customers.

At least the bot is not judging anyone!

ADHD caveman put their milk away. Forgot about it a couple weeks. Hey, it's chunky and funky but still kinda edible.

I'm sure the the same dude invented beer. He soaked his grain for a couple of days to make gruel. Then later he was like, "Hey, guys!"

 

As a project, Mastodon has operated under the umbrella of Mastodon GmbH, a German company that benefited from non-profit status with the German government. Despite all indications that they were doing everything right, Mastodon GmbH recently had its non-profit status revoked, resulting in the team to seek an alternative.

In the announcement, CEO and founder Eugen Rochko had this to say:

Our day to day operations are largely unaffected by this event, since Patreon does not presuppose non-profit status, and Patreon income does not count as donations. We have in fact not had to issue a single donation receipt since 2021.

Mastodon remains one of the only popular social platforms that operates out of the European Union, and Eugen desires to keep things that way. With that being said, this could be an interesting opportunity for the project: a presence in the United States may reduce friction in hiring employees there.
