I still don’t fully understand how mastodon works. But is there a way to make it possible to see someone’s follows/followers from other servers? I know part of the way I initially built my Twitter follows was seeing who the people I found interesting were following.

We have decided to create an account at Mastodon. We need time to learn how this platform works but also how to synchronize our work here with the Twitter account.

Thank you all for joining us here. No matter where we are, the mission stays the same. We are in social media to commemorate the victims of Auschwitz and educate the world about the tragic story of the camp.

Some personal news (as Twitter probably dies): I started a new job this week as UNICEF’s new global lead on conflict prevention, fragility and peacebuilding
Ugh, these new Twitter refugees are ruining the place for long-standing community members like me who have been here for ten days.
I am going to miss Twitter. What a tragedy.
