Hi! Today is my first official day as the Executive Director of Mastodon, replacing @Gargron as CEO. I joined the Mastodon team more than 5 years ago, mostly working for Mastodon in the evenings on top of a 120% day job. I was the driving force behind the incorporation of the German non-profit, am a co-founder of the US 501c3 non-profit, and I have contributed to most of the fundraising success, which allowed us to expand the team.

@mellifluousbox @Gargron hope you revert the decision to impose mastodon.social as default on the app, so we can finally let grow other server
@mellifluousbox @Gargron I wish you the absolute best in your expanded position, and thank you for all the work you've done for Mastodon and the fediverse to date. I always believe our brightest days are ahead of us. And I honestly don't know what I would do without the fediverse in today's weird tech climate.
Onward and upward! Excelsior!
@mellifluousbox
Felix? Wait.. what happened to John?
@Gargron
@mellifluousbox Looking forward. @Gargron
@mellifluousbox @Gargron thank you both for your service - the open social web owes you both a great debt.
@mellifluousbox
As long as you have a little bit more common sense than that idealistic nerd who lives under a rock then all is fine and dandy. @Gargron@mastodon.social

Alles Gute zum Start lieber @mellifluousbox als Steuermann bei Mastodon. Ein verantwortungsvoller Job.
Wir werden uns hier alle dafür einsetzen, dass Mastodon und das Fediverse ein offener, fairer und freundlicher Marktplatz des Austausches bleibt und seine Wurzeln in immer mehr Netzwerke eindringen, die hoffentlich bald alle eine gemeinsame Sprache sprechen.
@mellifluousbox I sincerely wish you the best of luck. I have no doubt it will be challenging, but hopefully also rewarding .
We're all counting on you. No pressure. ;)
