  Maybe it would help if there was a clear rallying point?

  For #Colombia https://col.social managed seems to have worked quite well for that.

  But I guess it doesn't have to be a server. It could also be a hashtag?

  Like #FedIndia ?

  If necessary followed through a relay, like #FediBuz to bring together different servers?

  By following (and adding a notification alert for) https://relay.fedi.buzz/tag/fedindia for example?

    @bacteriostat @nostupidquestions @admin If the #CockroachJantaParty would tell it's millions of Instagram followers to move to some still-to-be-set-up setup server like @cockroach.org if necessary with a VPN to circumvent government censorship, that would be a great way to bring India into the Fediverse...

      That would no doubt be awesome but keep in mind that the Cockroach party is just 2 months old (even less). They don't even have a proper handle and channel of communication.

      It is crazy what they have achieved but they are far from being organized.

      They have a bigger fish (education minister) to fry right now as they are still out on the streets.

        Streets are more important anyway. But if you do need a digital space we’d love to have you!

        @bacteriostat @nostupidquestions @joenepraat @aiquiral Yeah I understand. Don't want to distract them from more immediate challenges.

        Then again, never waste a good crisis. Maybe now that communication strategies are still being developed, now is the right moment to convince people to at least ALSO be here?

      @bacteriostat @nostupidquestions @admin @joenepraat I'd be happy to help set it up. Anyway to reach out to them? 🤪 @aiquiral ?

        @MishaVelthuis Creating a Mastodon server is not that difficult (few hours work), but are you going to moderate it?
