[ide-dev] Move EclipseJavaIDE twitter account to Mastodon?

Hi all,

Like many others, I am personally worried about Twitter on a high risk of becoming an even more toxic place in the future because of the trends regarding moderation. I see many people in the development world moving to mastodon and am planning to migrate as well some time.
To be honest, the only thing that retains me on Twitter is tweetdeck, which I use in order to get multiple accounts and search visible on the same page. But I've not investigated alterantives. Maybe mastodon servers do provide something similar.
Note that if we migrate to mastodon, it will soon mean that we'll stop monitoring Twitter activity; and that Twitter will only become a proxy to mastodon (until the account gets suspended in a few months when Musk decides a a new interpretation of "freedom of speech").

Anyway, independently of all that, I think it might be worth starting an EclipseJavaIDE account on mastodon. What do you think about it? If there is agreement that it's a safe thing to do, is anyone interested to lead this task?

Cheers,
