Ideally, talk to people who've had success moving a group or community from other social media to the Fediverse.

Depends on whether you want to tell people the Fediverse has two halves.
Almost nobody does, because almost everybody is politically aligned with one half or the other. But that's why nobody really understands the Fediverse, because the way the Fediverse actually functions would not be possible without both halves.@cjd @taylorlorenz What do you mean GPL software/tools are neutral ? Obviously it can only benefit my political views :^) -

@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social I’m not such a well traveled soul on the Fediverse, but I’m fairly sure you could connect with some of the friends of the guests on Fireside Fedi.
Also, my vote would go to @dumpsterqueer@superseriousbusiness.org, one of the more public facing devs of one of the smaller projects aiming to make hosting accounts individualistic and simple

@taylorlorenz You should talk to @evan and @cwebber for sure - both involved in development and cool people

@cjd @taylorlorenz What do you mean GPL software/tools are neutral ? Obviously it can only benefit my political views :^)All free software is neutral, and if it was as simple as that, that would be one thing - but the Fedi has two very distinctive "halves" which ... the left half largely thinks the right half doesn't exist, and the right half finds the left half devoid of meaningful thought. But each one needs the other for the fedi to work the way it does...

Maybe there are just people thinking what the others are thinking.
Shame this happened tho as I've witnessed the exploitation of this logical fallacy by malicious people for divide and conquer reasons.
It would have happened anyway imo, but the consequences/extent would have been much lesser.
The only things who benefit from this are the Fangmans as usual. -
@taylorlorenz clearly you should talk to anyone from nicecrewdigitalShe's on .social? .. ah yes, feds on the fediverse.

@taylorlorenz
I love the videos and other work by @_elena -

There is a political angle, and it's kind of left goes here, right goes there, but I don't think it quite captures the essence to refer to them as lefty-fedi and right-wing-fedi... -
@taylorlorenz TBH you should also talk to @Alice who works harder to build a truly absurd and fun culture then anyone else on the platform. When people talk about vibes, she sets them.
@stefan @taylorlorenz
I think you meant to tag @alice@lgbtqia.space. -
@stefan @taylorlorenz
I think you meant to tag @alice@lgbtqia.space.@Alice@beige.party @taylorlorenz @alice@lgbtqia.space such a beautiful and rare name.

@taylorlorenz I would be interested to hear from other journalists on the platform, if you know any, about their experience and on which instance they’ve settled.
I remember when I joined there was a concerted effort to grow journo.host, but I’m not sure what came of it. If someone asked me who to follow today I wouldn’t have good answer.

@taylorlorenz I'll (humbly) suggest @jerry - admin of the long-standing infosec.exchange masto instance, proprietor of the jerryverse (i.e. a wide variety of Fedi instances), and all-around good chap

@taylorlorenz I think one thing worth mentioning is that there are lots of people on Mastodon that aren’t influencers, or experts, but just interesting people sharing slices of life with others. Things like cats, nature, art, pets, funny stories, weather and a lot more make it a bit more human in my opinion.
There are definitely news feeds and analysis from topic experts ranging from climate to legal, but there is also a lighthearted side and a socially engaging side you don’t find on things like BlueSky. Here, people will actually respond to something you post (without flaming you
