Accounts being created include:

There it is: Germany's second big public broadcaster is teasing, that it will start posting on #Mastodon tomorrow as @ZDF That account has 3200 follower, on #Twitter its 1,4 million.

I'm sure it will start to grow quickly and get a headstart on the other big public broadcaster #ARD, which has labeled its first account a test (@NDR).

Of course it would also be a headstart on the big public broadcasters, that are arguing with #Twitter.

While #NPR and #PBS have quit #Twitter (without mentioning #Mastodon however), Germany's biggest public broadcaster #ARD and #ZDF are not only already testing their own instances for quite a while (https://dev.ard.social/public/local & https://zdf.social/public/local): The first proper account is now live and posts news articles from northern Germany – @NDR

Let's see, if NPR and PBS find their way here. Oh and where is the #BBC?

The home computer boom of the 1980s brought with it now-iconic machines such as the ZX Spectrum, which #BBC Micro, and #Commodore64. Those machines would inspire a generation.

The Computers That Made Britain tells the story of 19 of those computers – and what happened behind the scenes.

Now that #BBCWales HQ's have fully moved from #Llandaf to Central Square in #Cardiff one of the things I used to love doing was walking up to the #village at lunchtime and spending time at Llandaf #Cathedral it's an incredible place to just think and people watch! (most recently King Charles!)

Just happened to be walking back to work when Isaw this shot through the wall and had to take the shot!
