   RE: https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/116007580009927087

   For all of our Gaza Verified families, we kindly ask that you please carefully read and follow the rules for Gaza Verified. We’ve been getting a lot of messages that people’s accounts have been suspended, and that’s likely because accounts are being reported for spam-like behavior. We want to support you as best we can, but in order to do that we need you to keep the integrity of our efforts by following the stated rules.

   You can find everything you need to know here: https://gaza-verified.org/guide-arabic/

   @millerebonds @fabio @casey @duchesse @thoboumon @raphaellakay @AnnaLion @delsaulnier @gomli @Enfanthese I just checked: He’s signed up for verification using his framapiaf account so everything is ok. We will be taking to him on Monday.

   PS. In case he hasn’t seen them, the Gaza Verified rules are at: https://gaza-verified.org/guide-arabic/ (a good link to make sure folks are aware of to avoid getting their accounts limited/suspended on any Mastodon server, including the friendly ones).

   @M0YNG They’re not part of Gaza Verified yet. I’ve reached out to schedule a call with them and sent them a link to our guide (https://gaza-verified.org/guide/), well, to the Arabic version (https://gaza-verified.org/guide-arabic/).

   Good morning everyone.

   One million people are facing imminent death and destruction at the hands of Israel in Gaza.

   Israel has issued evacuation orders for one million people. These are people who have been displaced over and over again in Israel’s ongoing genocide. They have nowhere left to go. To move South costs on average $5,000 to rent land, a tent, and sanitation due to war-time profiteering. That’s if they can get someone outside of Palestine to host their fundraiser and if they can keep their social media accounts from being shut down by mainstream Big Tech platforms and after paying half the donation amount or more in commission while withdrawing the funds that are sent to them.

   Things are desperate.

   Mastodon and the fediverse are the last lifeline for people from Gaza. It’s their last chance of reaching us in the outside world so that we might help them survive the genocide and famine being wrought out by Israel.

   @joynewacc and I are having video conversations with people from Gaza who have Mastodon accounts every day to verify them in hopes that this will help them raise funds to live.

   You can find the verified accounts on Gaza Verified:

   https://gaza-verified.org

   I hope you will follow them on the fediverse, perhaps send them a few words of love and solidarity so they know they’re not alone but that there are some of us that see, hear, love and support them.

   And, if you can, please support their fundraisers, boost their posts, and share their accounts.

   Thank you in advance for making our friends from Gaza who are facing unspeakable horrors welcome on the fediverse and for showing that humanity is not entirely dead in the rest of the world.

   💕

   PS. Please note that many Palestinians use automated translation tools, including AI-based ones so you might notice issues with translation or even transliteration (so, for example, a name is written Eman in one place but Iman in another). Also, not everyone is social media or technically savvy. These are everyday people trying to survive a genocide and a famine so please understand that there might be issues with the accounts. That doesn’t mean that they’re not genuine. If you have any concerns, you can talk to me. (Furthermore, there are concerted efforts by some groups to spread FUD about Palestinian accounts with the goal of getting them all shut down. If you notice any such behaviour, please also alert me. To server admins: closing their accounts is tantamount to handing out a death sentence. We’re here to help if you need it.)

   PPS. If you know of any people from Gaza with Mastodon accounts who are not on Gaza Verified, please tell them about it. You can give them a link to https://gaza-verified.org/guide-arabic/ with further information. The guide also includes a list of Mastodon servers whose admins have publicly stated that their servers are safe spaces for Palestinians to open accounts so please feel free to share that with people from Gaza who are having their accounts closed on Bluesky and elsewhere. You can find the English version of the guide here: https://gaza-verified.org/guide/
