A bit concerned that Mastodon might end up centralising at mastodon.social . Most new sign-ups I'm seeing are there.

The need to add a suffix address for people on "other instances" adds friction, which means network effects will lead people towards the more popular instance eventually.

What do you think @stux ?

@shrikant thank you :)
@shrikant good luck to us all :)

@TimothyLaurent @moaparty tried it...doesn't work

Suggesting that those of us who have figured out Mastodon enough to follow friends, fellow seekers, colleagues and other interesting people should do a post introducing them so that others can find them too.

I suggest these be hashtagged #TrunkCalls, unless something else exists?

Here’s 10 to start off with, comrades from the blogging era.
