This is worth a read for all you geeks out there!. So impressed with @thomasp , @Hlini , @isak and the rest of the team. Great thanks to @Gargron, Claire and @renchap. Happy System Administrator Appreciation Day to all the sysadmins out there! https://thomasp.vivaldi.net/2023/07/28/what-happened-to-vivaldi-social/ RIP Twitter. The birds will now fly away. Some might fly here. Please be welcoming. Now is the time to invite your friends to join your #Mastodon server, whether it is Vivaldi Social or any other server. Feel free to invite them to other #fediverse services as well. They may need some handholding in the beginning. Be kind and show them the ropes. Please welcome our new members! At Opera we built MyOpera, a community site focused on serving the Opera community. It reached 35 million users and 35 million monthly visitors. After I left Opera, MyOpera was dismantled and Opera went for Facebook and Twitter instead. At @Vivaldi , we have built Vivaldi.net, with more than 1 million active accounts so far. We have now made our own Vivaldi Social Mastodon server. When you make your own server, you are more in control. Are people learning?

@jon @Vivaldi To get #NPR’s attention, we on Mastodon need to contact them directly to tell them why the #Fediverse is so spiffy. Here’s a link to their Contact Us form:

I suspect that there are rules about what the #BBC can and cannot do, with respect to this, as well as political obstacles from the government. The BBC has a bit of a history of getting ahead of the commercial competition on technology only to be reined in by government pressure. Then there's the distinction between the BBC itself and subsidiaries like BBC Studios. If anyone here still has a Twitter account, they should tweet that toot and tag them both. BBC just got tagged "government sponsored media" and they are LIVID. I think we all have historical experience with angry Englishmen 😅 I disagree Jon. I'm happy to see that Mozilla will be joining us here in the #Fediverse too, and it's fine that they chose mastodon as the Fediverse platform they'll initially use, but i disagree with you that entities should make their Fediverse platform of choice a "mastodon" branding. There are many others that are arguably so much better to choose from. @ruario and I had previously discussed this and though I was a bit harsh, he did agree promoting Fediverse best
