[CS-FSLUG] Mastodon?

[Cia Watson]

I started using a new browser called Vivaldi; apparently they've recently started a Mastodon service. I haven't set up an account since I can barely keep up with my feed on Truth Social. (@ciawatson on TS). Here's a link that they have from the Vivaldi browser: https://vivaldi.com/bk/sd-social

Blessings to all,
Cia W.

But there’s a lot more good stuff in the ActivityPub ecosystem.  LWN did a couple great articles going over what’s out there:

I just set up an instance for our church and outreach ministry and came online at trbutler at faithtree.social <mailto:trbutler at faithtree.social>. I think group functionality is coming this year — maybe a restored CS-FSLUG with a Mastodon presence would be cool down the road...
