HJ Hornbeck has been plugging away at the technical details of setting up a local Mastodon server, Freethought.online. He describes the process at length in Part One, Part Two, and Part Three, and I’m already worn out and intimidated. It’s supposed to be easy, isn’t it? OK, William Brinkman distills it down to the minimal basics. It’s currently an invitation-only instance, but you can leave a request to join here.
I think I’d like to join Mastodon, not so much because I have interesting things to say and time to share those things, but just as a way to try to anti-support Twitter.
Pharyngula sends me over here.
I have been following Myers for years; but I seldom comment. I am unsure how to search for comments. Ahh…. Google site;

So, unlike the Pharyngula FB and wiki, it’s an official site for FTB?
(Won’t see me there, of course. I don’t tweet)
