💬 Cross posting from Mastodon to Twitter using IFTTT and RSS
One strategy will be to actively participate on Mastodon more than Twitter. I’ve had a Mastodon account for the past couple of years and have been somewhat active in that space, trying to maintain a presence there as I really like this model of a decentralized social media network where it is possible for a small group to host their own instance and connect their Mastodon instance to other Mastodon instances. I have used the user-supported Mastodon.Social site for the past few years, but would really like to explore with the OpenETC this year what it might take to host our own instance of Mastodon within the OpenETC specifically for educators within BC to have their own Mastodon account.
Clint, I found Laura Kalbag’s discussion of instances useful. Also, Neil Mather wrote a reflection on setting up Activity Pub on his site. I am just unsure if I am then able to use the native app with Mastodon. Still exploring that.
