Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikimedia Social: non-profit social networking service ?

malleable things - look at Quora as a social network with very different community norms - no reason why one couldn't be mission driven. At the very least, a mastodon instance that could be linked to your wikimedia account might be a positive and realistic step towards this. *Edward Saperia* Dean
