BTW, there is a very strong Boston/Cambridge/Somerville community on mastodon, there is a entire instance for it: https://better.boston/explore
Mayor Wu is on there @wutrain@better.boston but not posting much these days.
There are also many people on other instances, like transport or OSS instance, as many prominent OSS contributor lives in that area.
Thanks for pointing this out. I am not that active on masto, but I am from the Boston area, so this might be the kick I need to check out that side of the fediverse. I lived in Somerville for 10 years before more recently moving to the burbs. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in this country these days.
