      @controlc Extrapolating from my understanding of US law, the evidence required to bring a criminal case is necessarily seized long before any conviction. Could Canada be any different?

        @jerome This is FUD. Spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt. If you had new evidence, you'd be talking to the police, not spreading fear online and telling people to move instance.

        As for @chad he posted as recently as of a few hours ago. Stop trying to make things difficult. Anyone is free to move to whatever instance they want, regardless of reason, but don't spread rumours and gossip to influence people to move.

        Disclaimer: I don't know Chad. I've never met him, and have never lived in the same province as him. All I know, like any of you, is what was in that old CBC article.

          @jerome I was initially redicent to move instances based on an accusation, but on further investigation and input from others, my feelings changed - especially on governance and management processes that were pretty much non existent on mstdn.ca.

          I switched to @coop and I've been happy since 🥰

          I do wish him well though, and props to the work he put in over the years.

          I hope justice prevails. ✌️

            Je parle pas de la police. Je parle de la situation financière communiqué par Chad lui même sur discord.

                  @jerome Did you delete the thread? I don't see it anymore.

                  Do you have the discord server so we can read whatever you're hinting at? Or send an invite? Cause I've not seen it, and I don't know where to find the discord.

                    1. The Canadian instances that come to mind:
                    - thecanadian.social
                    - cosocial.ca
                    - Socialbc.ca
                    - ottawa.place

                    2. Migration instructions: IMPORTANT: turn off approve followers while you migrate or you're going to be approving for a while.
                    https://fedi.tips/transferring-your-mastodon-account-to-another-server/

                    3. Nothing on Mastodon since it's in front of the courts, but the current on the discord as of today is that they've been struggling to pay the bills, including shutting down some of the scaling infrastructure. For a server this size, when you run low on funds, it's time to move.

                          Former mstdn.ca here - I jumped to Cosocial because I like that it's a co-op. Very happy with it so far, it's way faster and more reliable.

                            Indeed. I've donated to this server and would've done more if I'd known this was the barrier to continuation.

                              @zazzoo @stephanie @mayintoronto So far Ottawa.place hasn’t accepted donations, which continues to worry me (but I think our numbers are still small). Cosocial requires a subscription membership, which gives me more confidence they will last a long time. Both seem professionally run, though, whereas mstdn.ca had significant growing pains. It started as a hobby for the admin, not with growth in mind.

                                @dan613 @zazzoo @mayintoronto Andrew and Leigh have just been waiting to open a bank account for the instance, and run it entirely non profit before accepting donations. It should happen! They're very comfortable running it themselves in the meantime

                                        @controlc @argv_minus_one @CleoQc @jerome @bds @mayintoronto People are just stating facts (he has been accused of a crime, there are risks involved with relying on an instance that is hosted by someone who is being investigated)
                                        No one is saying he is guilty, just that relying on this instance comes with a risk
