We have a Twitter account
https://twitter.com/OSArchOrg
The general discussion on getting the word out with Social Media is https://community.osarch.org/discussion/334/getting-the-message-out-social-media
So now I've worked out how to use twitterdeck so we can be multiple people who use the account to like and share from. I've also started following the accounts of the software in our software list. I've got as far as Scribus. It'd be great if someone want to keep going through the list. Great way to get noticed and share our project with the projects who care the most about what we're trying to do. And a great way to get served the stories that are most relevant to our account.
If you want to coordinate use of the account or just share and like from the account let me know so I can give your twitter account access.
You know how this works, lots of people doing a little bit of work gets things done.
For now I've sent invites for access to @Moult @theoryshaw & @yorik mostly because I could easily find them and they're already active twitter users. @JanF are you on twitter?

@duncan Since I am writting for the website I would like to have access to tweet whenever I publish a new post.
Nope, sorry.

Anyone ready to set up a Mastodon account and get them linked, someone suggested https://moa.party/ ?
This must be the place for checking if we're sharing the right things. I want to share this brilliant video from all our accounts but I'm wondering if we agree on the principle - please take a look:
It's the best explanation of why free/libre software is just good for everyone.
@duncan great video! Please share it! I'll definitely reshare/retoot/retweet etc.
@duncan It worked, thanks!
As for the video I totally agreed it should be shared.

Helps that I went through and followed the accounts of everything I could find in our Software Diorectory as far as Scribus (anyone ready to go through the rest of the list?)
Here's an update. As some of you might have noticed our account hasn't been very active lately. Anyone is welcome to help, let me know and I'll add you to the list of editors who can post.
