Today's #Mastodon pitch: @torstenkathke's open-access spreadsheet of historians who've made the leap now has more than 350 names. There are similar lists of lit scholars, philosophers, astronomers, etc. going around. See next tweets for sign-up tips: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
@torstenkathke First time I looked at Mastodon I found it visually confusing. I'm 46, not an internet native. I needed to go to preferences and adjust the appearance before it made sense. For me that meant: 1)site theme: light, advanced view, and ( vital) SLOW mode so it didn't auto-scroll +
@torstenkathke I was also confused about servers (or instances). Mastodon is decentralized. There are many different independent servers, which are are all linked together (federated). You can join any server and follow people on any other server. I joined the biggest Mastodon.social
Now that the #MRoots2022 #genealogy #familyhistory #history #storytelling #conference is behind us, I wanted to share some lessons and thoughts I had as chair for this new type of learning experience. 🧵
The future of #genealogy #familyhistory #education is happening NOW for things you want to see and have mainstream in 3-5+ years. There’s no room for waiting. There’s no room for wishful thinking of before 2020. It’s embrace change. Be the change maker. Or fold.
Stop stereotyping people into boxes of how you expect they’ll respond. Age. Experience. Heritage. Race. Dive in and discover together. Invest in new learning styles. Invest in rising/emerging professionals. Push #genealogy learning spaces to be learner inclusive.

Look, we aren’t complaining. We are TeamSmith. But we just want to mention, in passing, that this whole next section of #WealthOfNations is basically a Digression on the Digression on Silver. You only THINK it's about farming.(I.xi.j–m) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
And also, it's still about rent? (OK, we are complaining a little.) (I.xi.e–m) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
When Smith says “rude produce” he doesn’t mean vegetables that question your life choices. He means plant and animal products that don’t need much technical processing to be useful. (I.xi.j) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
