So I decided to post the article I wrote (linked below) on twitter and am going to dump some money into promoting it there. Gotta get some attention to this. Go boost over on twitter if you'd like.

Eugen Rochko, CEO of Mastodon, Caves to Nazi's Agenda

@freemo

Thank you for this write-up. Being around for a while, I head the rumours around QOTO and without knowing the other side of the story, rumours were all I had. Your article clears up a lot and I wish for you and QOTO that your call is being heard.

Before reading, I struggled a bit with the title of the article, but now I get what you were going for of course.

@freemo

I find the write-up contains (at least) two important points: The history of QOTO (with valuable background info) and Eugen's early and impactful recent reactions.

Since the title lists only one, it might be a bit misleading ("clickbait title", as you put it). Wave you considered splitting it into two articles or use title that captures both aspects? I wonder if that might help the circulation of the article.

@floppy Have you seen/noticed that i changed the title from the original to be more sincere to the situation. I admit the original title was indeed a bit misleading.

@freemo I only ever saw the title that is also written in the post of yours that started this thread. If that is the updated title, then I have seen only that one.

@floppy ahh ok .. yea the title at the link is the correct one.

@freemo Which title it ever is, thanks for doing that write-up! I think it's good that this info is out there.

@floppy Thanks, please try and help me out by bringing some attention to it if your willing... do a top level post (not ajust a reboost) and link the article.. share with anyone you might think will want to hear it.

@freemo@qoto.org @floppy@fosstodon.org The title in the link still different than the one on the article. I'd consider changing that as well if I were you.

@freemo@qoto.org @floppy@fosstodon.org The link is "eugen-rochko-ceo-of-mastodon-found-to-support-nazis-agenda", the title of the article is "Eugen Rochko, CEO of Mastodon, Caves to Nazi's Agenda".

@SuperDicq

Oh that, yea i cant change that once posted sadly. let me see if i can find a way
