[Wikimedia-l] Re: Mozilla's social media pledge

[Lilli Iliev]

Hello all,

an informational addition: Wikimedia Deutschland also has a Mastodon
instance since December 2022, you can follow us here:
https://social.wikimedia.de/@wikimediaDE

We believe that organizations like Wikimedia can play an important role
here and create a social space for people online. People with a wikimedia.de
email address can sign up there and explore the Mastodon universe, so it is
limited to all WMDE employees and the board and is our first experiment to
gain more experience with this online space. It should help us to decide if
we can and want to extend it to our communities and members.

So far, we have seen that there is quite a bit of interaction, especially
substantive points such as our political demand "Public money? Public
good!" are often shared and commented on and foster some interaction. We
will continue to maintain this and are also interested in your experiences!

Greetings from Berlin!
Lilli
