I really feel this #MastodonMigration due to the #Twitter ban in #Brazil might be our last chance. It is clear that #Bluesky has the marketing that #Mastodon lacks - understandable given its FOSS nature.
But these moments are rare, and if this is indeed the start of Twitter's downfall, it may be our last chance to secure Mastodon as The Public Forum. We can't hand over its keys to another for-profit that will enshitify the forum of our democracies in the years to come.
It is our time as users to promote Mastodon, especially for those of us who work in the press or have other distribution channels. Yes, we may even have to come back to The Bird Cage to convince our mutuals to choose Mastodon when the time comes. This is the first time an entire country has been forced to choose between Mastodon and Bluesky, and what Brazil chooses might determine what the rest of the world chooses as the dominoes continue to fall.
So get out there and convince everyone. It could be our last chance.
No paro de pensar en lo desaprovechado que está siendo el bloqueo de #Twitter en #Brasil. Y me preocupa porque #Bluesky dispone de un marketing con el que #Mastodon solo puede soñar.
Oportunidades como esta las hay a cuentagotas, y si Twitter finalmente cae, esta podría ser la última oportunidad para asegurar Mastodon como El Foro Público por excelencia. No podemos regalarle las llaves a otro gigante para que mierdifique el foro de nuestras democracias cuando el ciclo se vuelva a cerrar.
Es nuestro momento como usuarios para promocionar Mastodon, sobre todo si disponéis de otros altavoces. Deberíamos incluso volver a la jaula del pajarito para recordar a los rezagados que elijan Mastodon llegado el momento. Es la primera vez que un país entero se ve obligado a elegir LA alternativa, y de lo que Brasil elija probablemente dependa lo que elija el resto del mundo según sigan cayendo las fichas.
Por favor, salid ahí fuera y convenced a todos. Esta podría ser nuestra última oportunidad.
@pablogilah I'm not sure why there was this move to Bluesky (who was the influential figures behind it), but the ambiance there is really taking off. Even the Brazilian president is there now, instead of setting up a Brazilian instance.
@veroandi I am really scared of this move. I really think it was a huge mistake of Lula to only offer his Bluesky. Mastodon is only backed by us, and the least we can do is to get out and promote it as much as we can. But we won't convince any outsiders from the inside, we have to get back. There. To the Bird Cage.
@pablogilah @veroandi Hi Pablo. The SECOM (president's communications secretariat) considered creating a Mastodon account. But it was stuck on which instance to create the account.
@josir @pablogilah nice to know that at least they are aware!
@pablogilah @veroandi We are working on a gov. instance model. We have a running instance uirapuru.ibict.br but we didn't publicized it because we didn't create the moderation rules yet.
There is IFTAS that create lots of material about moderation and best practices on Fediverse, maybe it could help, here's their website:

Poke @iftas
I'm already logged in :) I'm using some of the its template to create one translated to portuguese.
My intent is to publish there when I finished the translation.
That's great news, @josir !
@josir @pablogilah @veroandi espero que dê certo

Na torcida!
P. S. Lembro-me de fazer uma apresentação, em 2008, pra um pessoal do IBICT sobre a ideia de uma rede social da USP. Mencionamos a ideia de ser uma rede social federada:

@pablogilah hola, tengo un pr de cuentas de teitter oara ese tipo de cosas, podrias mandar algun post en el que promocione sMastodon en teitter para yo poder boostearlo y likearlo porfa?
@sargontrek Si te parece podemos hacer una cosa. Podemos hacer un llamamiento a que la gente linkee debajo de los toots iniciales cualquier post de twitter promocionamdo Mastodon. Así podremos compartirlos desde nuestras respectivas cuentas desde allí. Por mi parte, mañana me voy a poner a tuitear sobre Mastodon desde twitter como si no hubiera un mañana.
@pablogilah no me preguntes por la foto de perfil, si pones una foto es mas “organic” o lo que sea
@pablogilah truco, con un mismo email, puedes ir moviendo el punto y crear muchas cuentas ej. ejemplo@gmail.com e.jemplo@gmail.com
@sargontrek pero no se trata de crear cuentas a mogollón. Se trata de usar las cuentas que ya existen, de gente con cuerta audiencia, para que llegue a más gente. De nada sirve que sean cuentas de usar y tirar si nadie lo va a leer.
@pablogilah aunque si que cuesta crear una nueva creible, no te falta razon
@reseneka es el momento
@pablogilah Don't think it is our last chance but agree with the overall arc of this: Mastodon and the fediverse don't have dedicated marketing teams paid for with VC and billionaire money - we have people power. But that needs to be organized and focused for windows of opportunities like this one. Think there is still time with Brazil as I think this will play out over a while.
But yes, we are the fediverse marketing department.
@tchambers That's the point. We are the fediverse market department.
@tchambers I don't think Bluesky is investing on marketing. The migration of the last 3 days seems to be natural to me. People were looking for alternatives, many are already inactive on Threads because don't like it and people heard about Bluesky as an alternative. I do believe it's mouth to mouth.
@veroandi I agree, though they do have a dedicated paid press team working to get positive press mentions that do build awareness and brand building and can get their positive takes into stories - that does have an impact.
