NFB-Mastodon -- Mastodon Support List for NFB Members and our Friends
About NFB-Mastodon	English (USA)
This list is sponsored by the National Federation of the Blind, NFB. There has been turmoil, and a number of changes to Twitter in the past six months or so. Because Twitter has done things to disrespect its disabled users, the NFB has decided to put its emphasis into Mastodon. We have established our own Mastodon server, nfb.social. There are three accounts, on our server which you may wish to follow, @nationsblind@nfb.social news@nfb.social and @president@nfb.social. With increasing numbers of blind persons moving to Mastodon we know that many of you will have questions. Consequently we are establishing an Internet Mailing List to support you and Mastodon. The list is nfb-mastodon@nfbnet.org. The purpose of the list is to support Federationists and our blind friends who may have questions about Mastodon and how to use it. Topics for discussion and questions include, but are not limited to: different Mastodon clients and their accessibility, how to sign up, how to find and follow people, and hashtags and more. Come and join us, and we will do our best to answer your questions and support you as we all explore the Fediverse. You can join either by sending email to nfb-mastodon-subscribe@nfbnet.org and leave everything blank, or go to: http://www.nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfb-mastodon_nfbnet.org and fill out the form. You have five minutes before the form times out. This list is moderated by David Andrews. If you have questions about content, or have technical problems, please contact him at: David.andrews@nfbnet.org Or @dandrews920@tweesecake.social To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the NFB-Mastodon Archives.
