Microsoft’s official @dotnet sent its first Mastodon post today.

Pay attention to the domain: dotnet.social.

Which means Microsoft is operating their own Mastodon community server.

@dotnet account was registered in November, but it became active today.

Clearly, Microsoft sees the Fediverse as core to marketing to developers. I wonder what other brands they’ll bring to the Fediverse as well.

I am in no way a fan of microsot, however they are respected in tech circles, so I think this could deserve a cautions welcome.

I would like to see more small players on here though, small companies, start ups, small and medium businesses owned by people who care about their employees and customers.

The eco-system and lore works differently here, as long as they follow that, then why not.
