Tracking Issue: Rust Embedded on Mastodon about wg HOT 9 OPEN

Sounds good to me! I've set up @[email protected], and am just sorting out having it go to the resources team email address. As far as I could tell there's no reason not to just create the account their; registrations are open. I don't think there's any way to share ownership beyond just sharing the password, which I'm happy to do.

We should work out some basic principles for operating the accounts as @jamesmunns suggested; perhaps something like:

1. Post about specific announcements from the working group, e.g. to tell people about some major new release, a breaking change, etc
2. Post WG blog posts
3. Repost/share people offering and seeking jobs, with some rate limit that doesn't feel too spammy and will have to adjust based on how many requests we get
4. Repost/share people's posts tagged/mentioning us about embedded rust, same deal with the rate limit
5. Repost/share other major Rust related posts, e.g. from the official Rust account

How does that sound?

Hachyderm has had a big infra upgrade. Could be a good home now the dust has settled.

Opened #651, feel free to add any feedback or suggestions there.

I'm happy to help also in favour of hachyderm.io (biased cos I already have an account there) I believe @thejpster is also there. We should definitely have some guidelines around how to operate such account.

I'm @[email protected].

I understant Kris at Hachyderm.io, like many volunteer instance mods, has a lot going on right now. So whoever we approach we should do it with care and understanding.

Lemme write up a quick first draft of a "social media operational guide" as a PR. I'll find a home somewhere in the current wg repo.

@adamgreig also let me know when you want me to tweet/chost about the hachyderm account.
