Wow, I just approved several dozen requests to join twit.social! I am so happy!
Welcome to you all!
@leo thanks Leo!
@leo thanks very much, glad to be in a place with like minded folk, not Twitter 😡
@leo maybe you can become the twitter alternative - you continue to be tech leader
@leo great to have you back Leo. Fediverse is ready for the twit people 
@leo Hi Leo. I’m proud to say I’m one of them today. Thank you and love the Twit shows!!! I have Macbreak wkly & Sec Now all queued up for tonight’s drive.
@leo Social media toxicity and censorship make options like this much better. I hope you gain traction here.
@leo Thanks... Glad to be here!!
@leo thanking you
@leo I thought I knew all about social, until I heard the word Mastadon for the first time this week on TWIG.
@leo can you point us in the right direction of other friendly tech folks to follow? Just starting here. Interested in startups, tech, ML, and games. So far following HackerNews
@victusfate There are a few - I'll create a "Tech Tooters" list and add folks I know about.
@victusfate For better or worse, very few tech journalists are on federated social platforms. They live for the corporate platforms. On the bright side, many developers and hackers get Mastodon.
@leo good to know. Expect as traffic and conversations off of central platforms mature the tech journalists will follow
@leo @victusfate Leo is probably among the higher profile tech writers in this space but some other fairly established and active ones include @maxeddy , @gcluley and @lunduke
@leo Thank you for hosting a Mastodon instance, Leo! I think that Mastodon's distributed model could help to solve some of the problems that have recently arisen with respect to social media.
