Do you have a friend or family member who is not on Mastodon?

And you are thinking, "love to introduce them, but the whole multiple servers thing... 🤔"

Well, you are in luck.

A new site makes joining Mastodon a snap >>> https://spreadmastodon.org/

In minutes, #newbies will be up and running on mastodon.social (other instances coming soon).

@spreadmastodon has been developed by @tchambers and his team, so you know it's safe to recommend.

Let's do this!

Spread Mastodon

Welcome to your better social home.

@mastodonmigration @tchambers
It looks interesting, but what does it do?
First thing the web site does is ask me to sign in to my Mastodon account.
Second thing is, my Mastodon instance asks me if I want to authorize SpreadMastodon.org for full access to my account.
No explanation of what is going to happen or what is intended.

I'm not saying Yes if the website isn't even going to give me the courtesy of telling me what is intended, other than: "Do this! It'll be really cool!"

@potungthul @mastodonmigration @tchambers
yeah i get some warnings trying to sign in, and then it just hangs there. so, nice idea, but not working for me technically
@marion_grau @potungthul @tchambers Hmmm... it's new. So this feedback is certainly helpful. Sharing any further details would be great.
@spreadmastodon @potungthul @mastodonmigration @tchambers after i log in. it says something about 'there is no need to authenticate your identity' (mastodon is open in another browser window) then i have to confirm twice that i really want to authenticate, then it let's me authenticate, and after i click ok, it just goes to a blank screen and .... nothing for minutes. so then i close the window. tried ca. 3 times now
@spreadmastodon @potungthul @mastodonmigration @tchambers it warns me twice that it does not require authentication and the site might be an attempt to trick me. not exactly confidence-inspiring
