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

IIRC multiple people have access to the Eclipse Java IDE account.
AFAICS Mickael is by far the most active one but if he dislikes the
new Twitter leadership maybe Holger (cc) would be interested in
driving the account more active? AFAIK he already has access to it.

Best regards, Lars

The reason(s) why are your own and there is no need for anyone to convince another person to do or not smth - one just has to step up and do whatever he/she sees beneficial and worth keeping according to his views.
