It seems that many Star Trek authors, writers, and producers etc. set up Mastodon accounts when then expected to be leaving Twitter.
Some of those accounts are being kept semi active but don’t have active followers. I understand that following a Mastodon account from Lemmy isn’t as feasible as the other way. I’m wondering if those members might be more active if they knew there was a community here that’s interested to engage.
All to say that it would be great if
— we could have guidance on how to follow them from here if possible (rather than creating separate Mastodon accounts;
—the mods here could message them to let them know there’s a new and active community here interested to engage.
A couple of thoughts on this:
I don’t think it’s possible to follow Mastodon accounts through Lemmy - at least not yet. To be honest, though, after playing with their interoperability, in my opinion it’s best to just set up a Mastodon account and use it as a separate platform. The formats are different enough that you’ll be grateful for the more Twitter-like UI experience.
I’m personally not big on messaging actors or other series personnel without a very specific reason. These are personal social media accounts, and not everyone appreciates extra “noise” in their feed. Those who are interested will likely find out about us organically, and we would always reach out if the timing seemed right and we thought they would be receptive.
