I've been chatting with Avi Lewis about a presence in the Fediverse — Mastodon. They are getting closer to taking this step, &amp; YOU are needed. Why does this matter?

I'm hopeful that I can get some Threads accounts that enable sharing to the Fediverse; I'll ask, but I'm not very optimistic that I'll be able to persuade people to open accounts here.</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://cosocial.ca/users/mpjgregoire/statuses/115861498851945985</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://cosocial.ca/users/mpjgregoire/statuses/115861498851945985</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[mpjgregoire@cosocial.ca]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 08 Jan 2026 21:02:51 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Friends.
