I'll be moving my data over there shortly and marking this account as inactive/moved soon. Feel free to follow me there.
@DrSuzanne I hear you for sure. One distinction that is important here is there is not *one* community and hence one community guidelines. We are part of a federation of Mastodon instances and each instance chooses there community guidelines. This is why choosing which instance of Mastodon to join is indeed important. I think I have decided my landing point off this massive early instance but it actually has a guideline that is awkward for me: only posting in English.

Hi folks! I am actively looking for a #Postdoc in the areas of #Education #LearningSciences #OnlineLearning #TraumaInformed Learning #Academia #HigherEd #SocialEmotionalLearning #QualitativeResearch Please send #Jobs that might be relevant. Thank you!

More specifics: Looking to work remotely for a research position. Want to stay in the US for TT jobs (excluding TX and OK). I’m more skilled in #qualitative methods but I am working on my #quantitative skills and am teaching myself #RStats.

On TWiG this afternoon, four Mastodonistas will join to talk Twitter, Mastodon, and Facebook layoffs. Might be some Google, too, who knows?

@Telias @econproph @fgraver @catherinecronin The communities here (plural is important and I will speak more on that) is so great!

So, I want to publish a video about my choice of this instance. I spoke with my students today about the Fediverse and Mastodon but the live demo part was painful as it looks like my instance was having serious load issues as are may others. The popular (and I hear good) hosting at https://masto.host/ is not offering any plans currently.

Masto.host was built from the ground up to make running a Mastodon instance easy.

@shanselman Yes, I was showing Mastodon to students in class today to go over what the Fediverse is about and it was rough doing the live demo part.
@AlejandraPickett Yes, since your community can be something you like to view the local timeline with. In a massive instance like the one I joined originally that really is not useful (to me). Also, every instance makes decision on which instances to block and some are blocking large instances like the one I am on.
Looking at moving, I created this account early days in 2016 and I believe that I found my ideal landing space at https://fosstodon.org/
Fosstodon

Fosstodon is an invite only Mastodon instance that is open to those who are interested in technology; particularly free & open source software. If you wish to join, contact us for an invite.

Mastodon: What you need to know for your security and privacy

Mastodon is hot right now. After some years of only being used by geeks (yes, I’ve had an account for a while now) it’s at the tipping point of becoming…

@davecormier @cogdog I gave talks today in Tepic to high school (about 200 students) and then university students and faculty (about 70 people) and talked about Mastodon and the Fediverse.

It was not at all on their radar. The rest of both talks went well though, so that was great.

Bonus: I had breakfast at a nearby beach town. 😁
