Two of the best are:

mstdn.social (stux⚡@stux)

and

infosec.exchange (Jerry Bell @jerry).

@mastodonmigration @LALegault @stux @jerry uh, no ... two weeks ago I noticed infosec.exchange was being blocked/suspended by various servers over ... I forget. Some icky moderation dustup. A search engine will find the deets if you are curious.

@deborahh yes, about a year ago, I permitted the head of the US Cyber and infrastructure security agency, which is one of the most important government agencies in the area of defending IT resources, to create an account. That offended some other instance administrators. If that is a moderation dust up, I guess I’m guilting as charged.

@jerry What's their account? I'm now tempted to follow them :)

@buherator that is the craziest part - Jen (head of CISA) never actually created the account. It was my willingness to permit it that the HOA disagreed with.

@jerry @buherator What / who is the HOA?

@toxy @jerry @buherator You mean, in general? Or in this specific case?

toxy, 9 months ago

@BenAveling @jerry @buherator In general. I have no idea what the acronym means. I’m old.

@toxy HOA = Home Owners Association. Otherwise known as a group of people who take great pleasure in bullying others into doing whatever they feel is right. @BenAveling @buherator

@jerry @BenAveling @buherator Thank you. I’m weak on American lingo.

@jerry @deborahh which remains one of the stupidest hills for abolitionists to die on in the history of hills. I say that as an abolitionist myself.
