We're also going to work on the #ServerDirectory this year.
This starts with moving the directory to a new pull-request-based system so admins can submit, update, or remove entries themselves.
Another change we want to make is to add more and new ways to “classify” different types of servers including demographics, interests, and geographic regions.
Once we have that kind of information, we can start to explore new ways to incorporate it into the onboarding process. Stay tuned...
In other news, we're moving off #Discord to 
@zulip.
Our first step will be to migrate the people on our existing Discord servers to Zulip. Then we also want to extend access to more and different kinds of people who are deeply engaged and actively contributing to Mastodon and the #fediverse.
We're going to move slowly and carefully because we want to be thoughtful about how we build out this space. Running this community space is important, but it does add coordination and moderation overhead to our small team.
How would a space like this be useful to you? Let me know in the comments :)
