Twitter: ~43K “followers”, 8 boosts, 58 likes

A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of “federation” and “universe”. It is a common, informal name for a federation of social network servers whose main purpose is microblogging, the sharing of short, public messages.
Yep I still have more followers on Twitter than on Mastodon, but I get way more (and meaningful) engagement on Mastodon than on my Twitter account.
