We are excited to share that we are beginning work on a new onboarding experiment for #Mastodon: Default Server Recommendations.

@Mastodon send!
@stux I bet they were just waiting for you haha

The Default Server Recommendations experiment is a first step in reimagining how Mastodon onboarding & server discovery work.
Our team’s intent is to work with the community to build new onboarding pathways that support the entire network.
We can’t wait to get started

@Mastodon It sounds really good, especially to avoid overcrowd Mastodon official servers and strengthen the Fediverse philosophy!

@Mastodon
Cool that you crowdsource.
But no need to use g forms and then apologize for it.
I like to use https://framaforms.org/ -
@simzie Cool! Ich benutze bisher die main instance komplett auf französisch, was eine nette challenge ist – vlt. ist framaforms selfhostable?!
Aber ich sehe du sprichst FR, dann sollte das für dich ja kein problem sein ◡̈ -

How about also interest based?
There are some for special interests
Like punkstodon.de for punk music, metalhead.club for metal heads, infosec.exchange for tech security interested people and so on.
So just the region is maybe too less?
At least it's something to be considered after the first iteration -
If you’re interested in participating in this experiment, please let us know by filling out this form.
(sorry it’s in Google docs)

@Mastodon Since you say Sorry it's in google docs, why don't use other tools?

Our intent for this experiment is to recommend the closest server geographically that is in the correct language during the sign-up flow. We will be running this experiment on our iOS and Android apps only to start.

@Mastodon Можно выпустить в тг подарок , который можно будет получить при подтверждении ак ,в мастодонте .
Хотя не знаю почему ещё не выпустили свою же крипту,
You can issue a gift in tg , which can be received upon confirmation of the ak , in mastodon .
Although I don't know why they haven't released their own crypt yet,

@Mastodon
I really enjoy this news wich will make the Fediverse healthier and more resilient in my opinion.
Thank you.
🥳

@FediTips you should boost this to the admins of servers you have recommended on http://fedi.garden
I've posted about this on my other account @homegrown which is for people who run their own servers, and boosted it on here to get it a bit more visible. Hopefully that gets the word out to admins

@Mastodon Please switch from G***** docs or give us an alternative.

@Mastodon Awesome! The other issue is “filling up the feed”, right? Bluesky’s feeds to follow are nice, but we got hashtags here. Maybe when people sign up, you also give them a nice (and attractively presented) list of hashtags to follow???
LEAN IN on that old school spirit and people feeds will fill up right away!!!
@renwillis well, there's the trending timeline, too (already recommending accounts and hashtags).

Noo, send form!
