Comment (by neteler):

 Here some recommendations from the GRASS GIS project which already did the
 move (https://fosstodon.org/@grassgis):

 The move is easy. First
 - register at https://fosstodon.org (the likely best fitting mastodon
 domain. It is a request-only node, so a one-liner is needed about why
 OSGeo fits here - which is obvious :-) )

 Then
 - scan Twitter for followers already on mastodon using
 https://fedifinder.glitch.me/ . This generates a CSV file which is then
 imported easily under mastodon settings.

 And
 - enable the twitter-mastodon bridge: https://moa.party/ (works bi-
 directionally)

 Eventually
 - add the new OSGeo mastodon URL to the Twitter profile.

 Ping me for more info (I did the same for my personal profile,
 https://mastodon.social/@neteler). Happy to also do the OSGeo migration if
 no other SAC member volunteers.
