Hi! 👋 Here's our #introduction. We're BBC Research & Development; we explore and test new technology to discover how the BBC can best make use of it in the future. For 100 years our engineers have been at the forefront of developments in broadcasting. We're now researching how everyone could get TV & radio via the internet – along with all the flexibility and creativity that brings. 5G, AI, next-gen audio, UHD, personal data… we are investigating all these – and more! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzztGFXYR1Y

I've yet to dabble in Mastodon, but this makes me want to properly check it out. Seems like it's only a matter of time before more big names start following suit

Definitely give it a try, although I would recommend Calckey/FireFish over Mastodon - it has more features.

Mastodon etc is def the heart of the fediverse. I never used twitter, but I love Mastodon.
