Followed. I'm glad to see KDE's presence expand in the fediverse.

Did I miss the Telegram channel being created? I don't recall it being
announced here, I don't see it on https://community.kde.org/Telegram
so I don't know how to find it or join, it isn't bridged to the IRC
channel #kde-promo.

It feels bad that this list is no longer central to the Promo team.
It's hard to collaborate or even just boost/retweet/blog etc. when
we're not hearing what is going on. I think we can do better.

By the way, it is kosher to promote the mastodon account on twitter!
Everything that helps a free alternative to twitter/fb/etc is good in
my book.
