MODERATORS
 

Council recently received the completed report, which recommended discontinuing all eight active X accounts by July 15 and transitioning to Bluesky, a social media platform that started as a research project at Twitter in 2019, but became independent in 2021.

See you guys again in a few years. It's still progress and I get why it's easier to propose than hosting your own Mastadon instance.

The multi-millionaire is going to screw them over eventually but at least in a few years Mastodon will be much more well established and easier to use.
