Diana Staresinic-DeaneI'm getting ready to set up an account for our community historical society and museum. Is that considered a "public organization" from the perspective of Mastodon? #help
Can I join @genealysis.social as a historical society that helps people with local genealogy? #histodon #genealysis #geneadons #genealogy
DavidAbsolutely. This instance is open to anyone, but if you have interest in #Genelogy that makes it far more interesting for you and others. Not all our chat has to be about Genealogy. I talked about a smoothie this morning!!
If every post you make was advertising your service, that might become tiresome and breaches our rules. But if you can contribute and help others that's great.
Does that help?
thanks @PattyHankins for pointing me at this question, which I missed
@david @PattyHankins Awesome. We might promote a monthly free program and make an annual ask for memberships, but mostly we post stories and photos about local history. I also see this instance as an opportunity to get better at helping researchers!
