Special thank you to their admin Guinan for allowing us to set up. TenForward.social has been operational since 2017, so they should prove a reliable home.

      True, but following the instance directly can be a bit of a firehose of information since you get ALL posts and comments. We wanted to have a place to alert for scheduled maintenance, events, and stuff like that.

        @Admin @BalooUriza

        Yea, following the site in Mastodon is suboptimal. I’m kind of waiting to see how all this stuff shakes out. I don’t like creating accounts everywhere, so I’m looking at kbin, lemmy, or just staying on mastodon. Depends on where the software goes.

        “We wanted to have a place to alert for scheduled maintenance, events, and stuff like that.”

        Very cool. I have it bookmarked. I don’t have a Mastodon account, yet. I’ve had a Twitter account for years, but I very, very rarely logged on to it. I tend to be verbose (I’m working on it), rather than pithy, a habit that didn’t mesh with Twitter.
