Thanks all for the replies so far. To summarize, the answers to my original questions are:

Is the community still interested in engaging on Twitter? Generally yes. > 3. Is the community interested in other platforms, potentially just engaging > with them through cross-posting? Following Wes' question above, how would others feel if this project created LinkedIn and Mastodon accounts and cross-posted on all three platforms? If there isn't sufficient interest in additional platforms, I think it would be best to obtain an X Premium account ($8/mo) to make sharing the account easier and less likely to be considered a violation of the X ToS. If there _is_ sufficient interest in additional platforms, cross-posting using a tool like Buffer seems like the best option even if the project doesn't create any new accounts at this time.
