Announcing: G+MM AMAs

Announcing: G+MM AMAs

The Google+ Mass Migration forum (at G+) will be running a set of AMAs – ask me anything interviews – focusing on sites and platforms under consideration by present G+ members seeking to move elsewhere.

We’re compiling a set of candidates, the first invitations have been sent out and accepted!!

Eugen Rochko, (https://mastodon.social/@Gargron), the creator of the Mastodon microblogging platform, has agreed to participate in an AMA on G+MM at 5pm Central European Time (1PM US/Eastern, 10AM US/Pacific), on Monday 22 October 2018.

Mastodon is a distributed, federated social network that forms part of the Fediverse, an interconnected and decentralized network of independently operated servers.

Mastodon has microblogging features similar to Twitter. Each user is a member of a specific Mastodon server, known as an “instance” of the software, but can connect and communicate with users on other instances as well. Users post short messages called “toots” for others to see, subject to the adjustable privacy settings of the user and their particular instance. The platform includes artists, writers and entrepreneurs such as Chuck Wendig, John Scalzi, Melanie Gillman and later John O’Nolan joined in, while Mastodon had reached 1 million accounts on December 1, 2017.

  1. How about Dreamwidth? And I'm really looking forward to the MeWe one. I want to find out for sure if they're going to let outside search engines index public posts on MeWe!
