I was playing around this afternoon and played this: https://coxy.co/oslo/

🤷

(Just don't ask *what* it is)

#OsloTown #Mastodon

Welcome to the newest members:

@claval
@dmalaminos
@njmb

✌️

Get the most from #OsloTown — grab yourselves an app to use like @mammoth or @ivory or @Tusky or @tooot

🆒

Oslo.town in the wild. I suspect @themayor

#stickers #OsloTown

Tweaked some CSS on the light version of oslo.town to make the light lighter.

You're welcome!

(Unless you don't like it, in which case... you're welcome!)

Het alle i #oslotown Ha en fin fin dag og er det noen «sider» dere kan foreslå som tar for seg fotball, hockey og motorsport

Kinda wanna tell people about oslo.town but don't want to become Nathan Barley.

“It’s an online urban culture dispatch.”

Hei folkens! Husker noen dette fra 28. November 2021 fra Operahuset i Oslo?

OwO whats this? the furry has come to oslo.town!

@Holten @Vivaldi

They could certainly do both.

And yes, small instances can disappear, but it's unlikely for long-standing instances with dedicated admins.

I'd certainly say that an instance like #snabelen or #oslotown has better longevity prognosis than the average #google product 😄 and they're a giant!

I'd also say the same for #fribygda but my administration is just 1 month old for the moment, so a bit premature to make that claim.

Hello oslo.town folk,

Should I pay an extra 190 NOK each month so you can translate toots from other languages?

Translation does not currently support Norwegian. 😔

Det dukker stadig opp nye historier om hets, hat og truende oppførsel på Mastodon.

Det er så viktig at vi erkjenner at vi ikke får noe gratis her bare fordi dette ikke er Twitter. Tvert om. Nå må vi gjøre jobben selv, og den må vi gjøre raskt og godt.

Vil derfor atter oppfordre @SnabelAdmin, @themayor og andre eiere av store, norske instanser til å begynne jobben med å rekruttere til og bygge opp gode moderatorlag.

Nå.

#norsktut #oslotown #snabelen

✅ Approved trending news
✅ Approved trending toots
✅ Updated the About page

Take a look at the updated About page on #OsloTown.

@veanova Thank you very much :face_smiling_eyes_fb:

To keep the lights on in #OsloTown, we are currently paying a minimum of 89 USD per month :cash_money_bag_fb:

But with current contributions from #Patreon donations, it means we have 27 USD of that covered. :face_sunglasses_fb:

:heart_beating_fb:

Hello neighbors! I am now buying @matt \ @themayor a coffee each month for the work he puts into oslo.town. Maybe you can too?

An easy way to do so is to support him on Patreon: patreon.com/coxy

Support your local instance! #mastodon #oslo #OsloTown

People are now asked, when signing up, why they want to join #OsloTown and applications will be reviewed and accepted/declined accordingly. 🧐

Also, the server was getting a little wobbly :dizzy_fb: and so if you wish to contribute to server costs (optional), you can do so via #Patreon. Here: https://www.patreon.com/coxy :cash_money_bag_fb:

In other news, go and follow @deichman - the account is now in the hands of the official organisation 🎉 So let’s give them a reason to use it! 📚

I made a quick update to the Server Rules 📜 which you can view here: https://oslo.town/about/more/#rules

There's nothing too controversial in there, I don't think. But, that said:

If you don't like what you're reading and already have an account on #OsloTown, then you can always migrate your account to another server here: https://oslo.town/settings/migration

Hello 🌻

There are now over 1,000 people on #OsloTown and it's a joy to behold 📈

Last night I made some upgrades so we can have a nice, smooth running experience. ✨ This means running this #Mastodon site now costs approx. 900 Norwegian kroner per month. :cash_money_wings_fb:

If you wish to contribute to this cost, you can donate through #Patreon :patreon: https://www.patreon.com/coxy/

And I'm going to look into accepting #Vipps :vipps: payments in future.
