@nemorosa@mastodon.nu"Tjälknöl" (literally "Frost Lump"), the Swedish art of breaking all culinary rules to create the perfect cold cut.
How: Take a rock-hard frozen joint of moose. Place it directly into a cool oven (approx. 75°C–100°C) and roast overnight. Plunge the hot meat into a cold, salty brine after it’s cooked.
Result:
The meat is hot (the brine is cold) and drinks up the salty, spiced liquid like a sponge. You get incredibly tender, cured-style slices that melt in…

@paulbusch@mstdn.caPart 3 - Moving forward
One of Mastodon's strengths is its decentralized structure. That also means no centralized marketing or development strategy focused on growth, particularly in Canada. Perhaps a volunteer group could take on that development plan and grow the Canadian user base.
- A vision of what an ideal future state would look like would benefit the planning and action steps. Collecting input from Canadian admins is recommended.
- We shouldn't burden existing admins beyond their current responsibilities. Volunteers would take actions like reaching out to politicians or government agencies.
Potential next steps:
1) Host a web meeting with interested Canadian admins to collect input on a shared vision for this project.
2) Collect volunteers who would be interested in reaching out to politicians or government agencies about creating a presence on Mastodon.
3) Select members of the group to be part of a steering committee.
4) Create a unique hashtag for this project for reporting and followers.
