Hi, we're the .NET Community Team at Microsoft. We help run the blog, live streams, events like .NET Conf, and lots more.

We ❤️ the .NET developer community! We're happy to be here to share news, answer your questions, and... toot? It's called a toot, seriously? I guess toot, then.

Thank you to @styx31 & team for setting up and running this amazing community instance.

@dotnet @styx31 Glad you‘re here!

Since Mastodon v4.0.0 the term „toot“ has been retired in favor of „post“.

Hi, nice to see you setting up shop here.

Do Microsoft still send thugs to spy on the elderly mothers of bloggers of the FOSS community who have unfavourable views about Microsoft's business practices or is that a thing of the past?

Asking for a friend.

Cheers!

@bullwong Oh a Microsoft fan. How pure and life-affirming.

@vruz @dotnet @styx31 you jeer, but I was over at fosstodon first because I maintain a suite of libs (nuget), then I found out about this server.

I moved over because they're so Linux-centric. They were nice enough, it just wasn't the crowd I thought it was.

@gregsdennis

I have no idea what this has to do with anything I said.

@dotnet @styx31 Heh heh heh... soooo .NET didn't just join Mastodon: they got their own instance?

So does that mean OTHER Microsoft communities can set up shop like Security, Games, Azure, Open, SQL, Windows, Partners, Education, ISVs & many more? Wonder if Azure Marketplace has a Mastodon instance template...

Just asking questions. 😁

@foehammer @dotnet they have validated links in the profile, so yes it is.

@dotnet @styx31 @reiver be prepared. The open source vegans are going to pelt you with overripe avocados. *ducks*

@dotnet @styx31 I deeply regret the day dotnet became open source but I respect your decision <3

gregsdennis

@dotnet @styx31 happy to have you! Maybe your presence here will spur some server growth!

@dotnet @styx31 thanks for hosting it. I love living in the world where #Microsoft is on the forefront of community-driven innovation.

Your company had a huge gap to bridge in the 2010s, and you've done it in an absolutely stellar fashion with products like WSL. 👏

@dotnet @styx31 Hello and welcome to Mastadon. Feel free to toot all over the place 😁 #toots #tooters

Nathan Thomas

@dotnet @styx31 Great to see Microsoft getting stuck in with Mastodon! I hope other teams will follow suit.

David Cohen

@dotnet @styx31 a toot. Someone didn’t do their middle school homework.

@dotnet It has been toot for a long time. Despite efforts to change it. I personally think tooting is great :)
Welcome.
