Now that I've got https://home.social up and running I wonder whether I should merge this account into my account there. It's a little bit intimidating to be honest. Has anybody in my larger network successfully done an account move/merge? Was it painful? :)

@fennek@octodon.social I haven't yet added it to any officials directories, etc. So it's only word of mouth right now.

@ff@nodomain.cc It's financed by my personal investment holding. Why should you trust me? It's probably not for me to answer. I'm "pretty public" on the Internet, always used my real name so you can look me up and see whether "we fit".

Trying to bring friends into the #fediverse? I've launched https://home.social in "stealth mode". It's a pretty powerful server, located in Germany and operated fully redundant with a long-term commitment. Also open for co-admins and mods. DM me.

Replying to @fraunora@chaos.social
@fraunora@chaos.social Yeah. Understandable. But would you mind having an account at one instance you trust and (partially) work for?

@fraunora@chaos.social I think mastodons excellent multi-user and migration features actually support this scenario pretty well.

I read this elsewhere: If trusted news outlets would start offering #Mastodon instances to their staff, that would bring some sort of verification and visibility. Think social.nytimes.com, social.heise.de etc. I'd love to read more from trusted journalists on the #fediverse and this could greatly help. (Again, not my idea but couldn't find the original author.) Boosts for visibility would be great. Reminder: Favorites don't help as on this other platform.
