Nice, there were at least 30 people who raised their hand in the #Fosdem Legal & Policy track when @neilNeil Brown asked who is following him, after he asked who is using #Mastodon . Great to see this change with so many more switching to the #Fediverse 😃

Thanks Neil for being pro bono lawyer for so many #FreeSoftware initiatives and for giving the talk "Online Safety" laws: reflections for #FOSS projects" at #Fosdem 👏 https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/EAVFF3-online-safety-laws-and-foss-projects/
