This one has an excellent "how (not) to", but also has some etiquette pointers.

@PepijnVemer @xtaldave Much obliged!
@xtaldave I have various etiquette questions. The FAQs and pointers all seem great on “how to”s, but not so much on the “you might consider”s.
@trinsec That’s definitely where I went wrong. I’m poised to cut up my Brit-Card if there are further cuppa-related incidents.
I just asked my communications and IT colleagues at #Stanford to consider hosting a #Mastodon server for our University community (as MIT has already done: mastodon.mit.edu).
Such institutional sponsorships (e.g., higher ed, academic associations, etc.) seem like a compelling & sustainable equilibrium for the #TwitterMigration. I also think organizations that do so would benefit in several ways without meaningful new risks.
