beige.party is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

President Joe Biden’s Threads account @potus is federating on the Fediverse!

And I’m following him from atomicpoet.org!

Wow! This is as monumental as Barack Obama joining Twitter! A truly historic day for the #Fediverse!

@TheJen @fediversenews You would think that the U.S. government would run their own Fediverse server. But it is what it is.

@atomicpoet @TheJen @fediversenews i think someone said at some point that it'd take a miracle for the us government to set up a fediverse server because of bureaucracy things

@atomicpoet @TheJen @fediversenews
They're working on it. They are also building out an online repository for federal reports/journals /scientific info.

@TheJen @atomicpoet @fediversenews
Not the normal Library of Congress material. It's the stuff they were putting into commercial repositories for academic papers. They seem to be going by dept/area, so you can find some locally already, but not all. I don't know if the new repository is considered part of the Library of Congress.
