Mastodon resources for screen reader users

Kes: Now that more people are moving to a platform that isn't pushing advertising, I'm considering joining Mastodon: the only question is, which server?

Regarding resources, David Goldfield, owner of the Tech VI mailing list, posted the following links, but I would add this one, which has been around for years:
Changeling’s Guide to Mastodon for screen Reader Users

From the Tech-VI list owner:
You can find me on Mastodon by searching for [profile] davidgoldfield@iaccessibility.social
Also, Jonathan Mosen discusses Mastodon in
Episode 206 of the Mosen at Large podcast.
