I do wonder what happened to Jaden, I looked at a backup of my follows and found his address, I think: @Jaden3@mastodon.social . But his account seems to have disappeared!
I hope he turns up again, he added a really valuable perspective and kindness whenever he posted!
@5ciFiGirl @ApostateEnglishman @CathyBikesBook
That's very true

@erichatfield never been on Bluesky. I'll check it out. I also heard of an instance called Blacksy, which apparently is part of Bluesky.

I want the fediverse to be better for black people and other folks of colour, but i recognise the work blacksky has done even though i worry what will happen on bluesky. -

Thanks sharing! For some reason alesha_peterson goes to an external website. Unusual server?

@macacator someone mentioned you in my AskFedi post about finding more Black people up here
@CathyBikesBook yes, I am a negro, and not the White-adjacent variety either.

There was a guide I can't find about being black on the fediverse. I'm trying to find it. In lieu of that there's this. https://logicmag.io/policy/blackness-in-the-fediverse-a-conversation-with-marcia-x/
