#TwitterRefugees don't despair. #Mastodon may feel a bit slow but that's probably because of the sheer number of people joining. It was last this at peak joining a couple of weeks ago too then became smooth again.
Hello new people! 👋
If you need help getting started on here, have a look at:
It's written in non-technical language, it's a beginner's guide.
If you can't find the answers you want on the site, @ me or message me.
Exciting times, even if they don’t last. Mass people migration to non-profit platforms. No money-making agendas & algorithms. No one here is trying to sell you something or use your content to sell something to others.

ARE YOU READY TO RUMMMMMMBLE
The Great Nuclear Debate is about to kick off at the @iaeaorg@twitter.com pavilion.
I'll be debating a German Fridays for Future activist on the present and future of nuclear energy.

Twitter, hate speech
"Failure to adhere to Apple and Google’s guidelines would be catastrophic, risking Twitter’s expulsion from their app stores and making it more difficult for billions of potential users to access Twitter’s services"

Sadly feels like Twitter is truly imploding.
1️⃣I’m mirroring on Mastodon at @mgeist or http://mas.to/@mgeist

The grapevine is lit today. Rumors flying from ex-Twitter employees that people are reacting to with "Oh my god, it really is just going to stop working."
I will give big points to the first news organization, big or small, that:
* Sets up an instance for its newsroom,
* Sets up an instance for the community it serves,
* Enables rel=me for staff,
* Creates a boost-on-Mastodon sharing function,
* Enhances that function so headlines/images (with alt-text) appear in the toot,
* Covers the Fediverse as more than a geeky curiosity or alt-Twitter,
* Listens to and joins in the conversation here.
Hello! I'm new to mastodon so I'll do an #introduction!
I'm a scientist at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK, and I work with satellite data to #research weather and climate. In particular, I look at severe weather such as #storms and volcanic #eruptions.
I also try to share lots of lovely images of our planet from space!
The man's mad! We've got #FollowBackFriday, Musk's now created Freedom Friday where he's unleashing all the previously banned far right, fascist loons on us! 😡

Health is not important to our government. Completely ignored. We have seen many leaders in our era. I can only pray for our national leaders now and hope in their solitude that they might want to take the higher road since life has been good to them. God bless us all.
