We're excited to share the results from Mastodon's first #DiscoveryWeek!

In case you missed it, earlier this year our Head of Design @npub14048z... arranged a week of workshops and surveys to get to know you, learn about your needs and wants, and discover how you're using (and want to use) Mastodon.

This week was tremendously helpful for us, and we're grateful to everyone who participated.

Here's what we learned:

Have you taken the @IFTAS Social Web Operations Survey yet? 🧐 There's only one day left!

Only 2 days left to share your voice in our annual #Fediverse survey! If you run, manage, or moderate a #SocialWeb service, your anonymised and aggregated feedback goes directly to lawmakers and regulators around the world. If they don’t know our concerns, they can’t write Show more

It's time for our first Server Spotlight!

We want to help people find their communities across the #fediverse so we're featuring servers here on this account.

First up: The Mended Drum, a home for fans of all things Sir Terry Pratchett.

It is said that if you stay on The Mended Drum long enough, you'll meet every hero on the server: https://mendeddrum.org/directory

(keep an eye on your horse, though 😉)

New in Mastodon 4.6: Newsletters 📬

Mastodon servers now support email newsletters, which allow people without a social web account to subscribe to your posts via email. This feature is opt-in at the server level.

We're building Mastodon for people and institutions that want independence from corporate-controlled social networks, so they can reach their audience directly wherever those people are.

The landing page of your Mastodon server doesn't need to look like a social media feed.

As of our latest release, those running Mastodon servers can now set up a custom landing page that highlights what your server is about and showcases recent posts from local profiles. Give visitors a curated introduction to your server that actually makes sense for your community or mission.

Learn more about this and other features in Mastodon 4.6: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/06/mastodon-4.6/

Collections let you curate, share, and discover groups of profiles, to help you find the people and content that interests you.

Here's how they're different:
✅ You decide whether your profile can appear in Collections and you can remove yourself from a Collection at any time
✅ Limited to 25 profiles each, no mass-follow shortcuts, and transparency when Collection details change to keep them useful and spam-free

The annual #SocialWeb Operations Survey from @IFTAS is open!

With over 8,000 active installs, we want the #Mastodon community's voice to be heard. Whether you're running a single-person server or a larger community hub, your feedback directly shapes the tools, resources, and advocacy IFTAS takes on. And they've rebuilt the survey on Tally this year, so it's EU-based and mobile-ready.

Please take 10 minutes to complete the survey: https://tally.so/r/81MW6k
