It’s been a month since I began my transition from big tech systems – marked by this banner on my Facebook account: “I’m more and more elsewhere…”

Now building on Mastodon, Threema, Pixelfed etc. See my new blog & initiative for context: https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net

Any advice for me and my fellow followers from Facebook on how to effectively rebuild initial networks here (or across the Fediverse) is very welcome!

Hopefully this is an correct post about the migration feature/system on Mastodon?

1 year since we left #X / #Twitter

Our move to #Mastodon wasn't just a platform switch. It was a leap into #OpenScience in action.

We found a chance to align our communication w/ our values: transparent, meaningful, dialogue-driven.

Thanks, -community, for this wonderful experience. We learn a lot here.

We hope to encourage other academic institutions to join.

Asking for recommendations:

I'm looking for a new instance. #universeodon has become essentially unusable since Byron's departure and the recent server migration. A mix of timeouts, server failures, and just missing posts. I've been supporting it via Patreon so am more than willing to support a new server.

What i'd like is stability and reasonable performance. An interesting local feed is a bonus. Not looking for an instance based on a single interest group or one that's highly ideological.

Suggestions?

(Now we'll see if this actually posts and if I'm actually able to see replies.)
