Auschwitz Memorial

We have decided to create an account at Mastodon. We need time to learn how this platform works but also how to synchronize our work here with the Twitter account.

Thank you all for joining us here. No matter where we are, the mission stays the same. We are in social media to commemorate the victims of Auschwitz and educate the world about the tragic story of the camp.

@auschwitzmuseum Follow you on @Twitter, for however long that lasts. Glad to see you here. Your posts are necessary reading for their often tragic human stories and essential education. They remind us of the depths to which humans can fall, providing a warning to all future generations.

“For everyone else, a reminder that as this site implodes, Mastodon is a good place to preserve your social network as a backup. It's not particularly difficult to set up, and it's pretty similar functionality-wise. Not identical, but very similar. Let's walk through how.”

@auschwitzmuseum — It’s important and great that you’ve joined here, but please *don’t* synchronise in the technical sense your account here with your Twitter account; Mastodon is its own culture with its own ways of people talking to each other, so simply automatically posting everything you do there to here may undermine your important work.In particular, please make good use of the CW wrapper for anything which may ‘irk, vex, upset, or trigger’ the people you want following you

@simon @auschwitzmuseum M-T C is okay, but only if everything is first seen in the ActivityPub world. Twitter-first posting is a recipe for failure.
Show threadGreg PriceNov 20, 2022

@simon @auschwitzmuseum To add on to this excellent advice: if you apply the CW wrapper to your posts, it will greatly help you expand the reach of the posts.

That's because many people who would gladly "boost" (retweet) your posts will hesitate to do so without a CW, in order to respect their own followers' ability to choose when to see disturbing material.

@auschwitzmuseum it is good to see you here. I still not sure if 'like' or giving a star is appropiated for your posts but, for sure, I will relay them. It is an excelent remainder of how a society can change to evil by ignorance and some pp exploiting 'fear of the others'. We are all Humankind.

@auschwitzmuseum Very nice, and very important. Maybe it would be a good idea to inform yourselves about content warnings, as I can imagine this is a sensitive topic and maybe triggering for some people. (e.g. Jewish people or relatives of survivors)

@auschwitzmuseum Welcome!

As food for thought, I'm going to suggest two things (one more doable than the third)

1) You may want to at some point see about creating your own instance, since that gives a "verified" vibe (that's the harder one, I'll give an option if you want verification)

2) Check out the settings--there's five places for "metadata" where you can add links and such, and a brief idea on how to "verify" based on links
