To clear things up, I am not the real Jk Rowling. Just a fan of hers that took her name as it wasn't already taken on this platform.
@jk_rowling That's the beauty of Mastadon though, someone else can "claim" @jk_rowling on any or even all other instances! So there's no need for the name grabby grab. The only problem of this, of course, is that there is huge potential for many impostor accounts. :( But the cool thing is the real JK Rowling can potentially have her own Pottermore instance for example and the REAL JK Rowling could be @[email protected]! *nodnods*
@ember Yes that would be really cool! I think I'll shut down that account when mastodon gets a bigger community. Thank you for the toot,you seem really nice *smiles happily*
@jk_rowling I really like the potential Mastadon has for communities to keep that tighter knit feeling of a small group with the same interests while still allowing users to interact with the whole network of other communities at large! And the whole "self-verification" aspect of it seems really neat! I'll admit I got excited to see your handle on here as a casual Harry Potter fan myself. XD According to Pottemore, I'm a Slytherin! O_o 🐍
@ember Great! I'm personally in ravenclaw 🐦
