Hi! Today is my first official day as the Executive Director of Mastodon, replacing
@GargronEugen Rochko 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.

I am passing the torch to
@mellifluousboxFelix Hlatky, who will be the new Executive Director. Felix has been involved with #Mastodon since 2020 and has been instrumental in evolving the organization, raising funds, and growing the team to get us to where we are now. With
@haubleshannah aubry and
@renchapRenaud Chaput by his side, and the team we have assembled over the years, I have faith that the new leadership will do a stellar job.
