Let's remember them
🙏
@jenstirrup Thank you for your kind support. We remember about the history and the human tragedy of Auschwitz in order to create better, safer and more responsible future. We are grateful for amplifying our voice.
@auschwitzmuseum Thank you for all the work that you do in pointing us to a better future. I appreciate all the dignity you give to the memory of those we lost.
More than ever, it's so important that your signal is heard above all the noise.

@jenstirrup There work is so important, and touching, but the lack of CW means it would bring heavy post to my timeline outside of my control. Which isn't how I want my home feed here to be.

I'd love if there could be two Auswitch Memorial accounts, with the same content, one CWed the other not.

Given they only JUST moved over, that is amazing.
So glad they are here.
@jenstirrup Currently unable to locate them by search. Some server errors at present.
@MW1CFN yes, I had to wait a bit until I could find them. That said... it's worth the wait. Thank you for your support 🙏
@jenstirrup In the early 20th century, Marconi receving stations would record high-speed, automated Morse onto wax cylinders, then play them back at human-readable speed. #Marconi #wireless #Morsecode
@MW1CFN Thanks! I am going to see if I can find some pictures of this! The innovation at the time was just incredible IMHO.
My great Uncle was a codebreaker during WW2. He went to Bletchley briefly and then to India to break Japanese codes. I tried to learn Morse as a child when they used to offer the Morse code exam.
@jenstirrup I'll see if I can find a photo in the Marconi archives documents I obtained this summer in researching my book. There is certainly a text description of the process.
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum
Thank you! It is a little difficult finding everyone here 🙏🏼
@Lmck Thanks, Lois! I am still figuring out how Mastodon works. I was glad to find @auschwitzmuseum on here. 🙏
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum
I’ve been here for about a couple of weeks now — deactivated my Twitter profile and not looking back. The fediverse appears so much more respectful and polite! My blood pressure is grateful, lol. #Mastodon
@Lmck I hear you! I asked a (probably very stupid) question about setting up a router on here, and I got some helpful answers.
Nobody had a go at me, and, to be honest, I'd been waiting on some snark. Very glad to be here!
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum thanks for the heads up. ☺️ I follow them on the bird app and have been trying to find everyone I followed before deactivating that account.
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Thank you for pointing this out. Just followed. Thank you for your humanity!
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Nevermind…user error. Followed!
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Thanks for the tip. I'll be interested to support and see their content.
@jenstirrup They are a really good follow. Thanks for the reminder and link.
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Weird. The follow button isn't showing up.
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Server must just be slow. I got it now!
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Thanks! I would hate to have lost contact with them. Now I won’t.
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Done! And followed you, as well.
@Nicksologist I think if you click on the name @auschwitzmuseum then it takes you to the page. The 'Follow' button disappeared for a bit, I heard, but it seems to be back. I think that the server got busy. I am still trying to figure it out!
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum Those who cannot remember the past are doomed to repeat it. Still true.

@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum

@mdpress Can you try again? The username is here: @auschwitzmuseum
I think some other people had the same problem but it seems to have come back. I'm still figuring this all out! 😕
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum @Nadinabbott
Thank you. I had looked for them before they created an account.
@jenstirrup @auschwitzmuseum thank you! Follow on Twitter, now follow here.
