Here is a link that is good for 10 invites to the bsd.network Mastodon
instance.  You'll need to agree to our [Code of
Conduct](https://bsd.network/terms) during the sign up process.

Please don't post this code to other sites.

Enjoy!

*Edit: and they're gone*

Pretty happy to see many *BSD developpers being present on the
fediverse!

Why not just use one or all of the many different BSD irc channels?

As a teenager who has very limited experience with IRC, I find it
quite frustrating to navigate and use, and I'm unlikely to use it to
talk about something unless it's the only place I can go. Mastodon
however I find much easier to use and would be more likely to join a
relevant mastodon instance than IRC channel. I'm also unsure how easy
it would be to use IRC on mobile.

For others, obviously their preferences are the reverse. But in the
end, choice in places to talk about BSD is surely a good thing, no? :)

I'm a total outsider, why all the hostility?

I am annoyed by people who spam their social media platforms on
reddit.

I am also annoyed by the whole code of conduct movement because I see
the kind of rules they propagate as damaging and unproductive because
they only serve to escalatate conflict instead of resolving it.

bsd.network is just a cooler way to join a federated general   purpose
social network built around an open standard (OStatus/ActibityPub).
The instance is mainly populated by BSD users, which make it kinda
interesting for *nix fans as the local timeline is typically full of
BSD content.

That said, joining Mastodon through bsd.network is basically *just
joining Mastodon*, a worldwide Twitter/GNUSocial -like social network,
whose mere goal is entertainment and socializing.

bsd.network is not a technical help support forum nor a communication
backend for BSD developers. Unlike Discord, Telegram, Matrix, Slack,
doesn't want to be a IRC replacement. And never meant to become one.
Ultimately  comparing it to official *BSD IRC help channels doesn't
make a lot of sense
