Kes: I've participated in many webinars from this library and they are excellent, highly recommended.

From The Andrew Heiskell Braille and Talking Book Library:
Community Organizers and Social Media Folks:
Join us for a timely intro to Mastodon!

Intro to Mastodon with Accessibility in Mind
Sunday November 20, 4 PM Eastern

Folks are flocking to this de-centralized social media platform, but it brings a lot of new concepts into play. Join us for a run-down of the basics, and bring your questions!

Note: This workshop welcomes everyone, but is curated to be inclusive of people who use assistive technology.

What we'll cover:
How is Mastodon different from Twitter?
What is an instance and how do you choose one?
What are home, local and federated timelines?
How do you connect with people on other instances?
Toots, boosts and favs: what do they mean?
What about moderation and security?
How to find your friends on Mastodon
