A Better Social Media Experience for Episcopalians
| |
As
dissatisfaction with Twitter and other centralized social media
platforms grows, one Episcopalian has responded by launching a Mastodon
server geared for Episcopalians.
“episcodon.net
is designed to be a safe and pleasant community for all individuals and
groups connected to The Episcopal Church,” said John Clinton Bradley,
the administrator of episcodon.net. “Our server rules discourage many
types of harmful behavior found on other social media platforms. Members
are in complete control of what content they see and with whom they
interact.”
Mastodon is a decentralized platform of independent servers. Founded
in 2016 by Eugen Rochko, Mastodon has steadily grown in popularity.
During the last month, thousands of new servers and millions of new
members have joined the network. Members of episcodon.net can read, follow, and interact with members of other Mastodon servers if they wish.
Visit https://episcodon.net
to join. Membership is free. It is not supported by advertising, but
members are welcome to make recurring donations using Patreon. Members
can participate in episcodon.net through a web browser or a mobile app.
