Run Your Own Social is a guide for people who might want to run their own social network - like a #Mastodon instance!
I like the author's emphasis on small communities, and will check out the links to resources that the author included.
Found via downes.ca, which is Stephen Downes' site. Thanks, @Downes!
Big things happening at #QOTO I wanted to update everyone on.
So as most of you know I had a year long back injury that put a lot of QOTO plans on hold. But I've been healed and working on bringing much of that vision to reality.
As of a few weeks ago a few close friends and fellow engineers wanted to join the team. I am currently sitting with 3 other new engineers and we are working on bringing up several instances including peertube, nextcloud, gitlab, discourse, and of course a newer version of QOTO. A full collaboration suite for others in STEM and the open-source community. All for free to its users.
This launch will coincide with several of my other projects many of you follow including protowaffle, ROES, Graphactor, Aparapi, Ferma and many others. We will host all the source on QOTO as well as make it the source for future software announcements related to those products.
Stay tuned for me.

In his years at Oxford, Newman studied the scriptures and the writings of the Early Church Fathers in depth, awakening in him a passion for what the Church could become, true to its foundations. He described reading them as 'music to my inward ear.' #Newman #OxfordMovement
