As some of the more eagle-eyed among yu have noticed, the iOS version of the #TootWales app just went live:
https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/t%C5%B5t-cymru-toot-wales/id6758692452
If you downloaded via TestFlight, feel free to delete both apps (TestFlight and Toot) and reinstall from the link above.
Ready to help someone move house?
New members can create an account directly on toot.wales via the app.
If they want a different handle/domain, send them here: croeso.toot.wales/en/server-di...
The goal isn't to lock people in, it’s to give them an all-access pass to the new Social Web.
(minor delay with iOS, stay tuned)
We've built a Social Web app. It runs on Mastodon but it talks to the entire open web - Bluesky, Pixlfed, PeerTube, WordPress, and beyond.
We’re connecting #Wales to the world, from Cardiff to Calgary to Calcutta. It’s a local identity with global reach.
#Cardiff - what a night!
We wrapped an incredible launch event and the #TootWales Android app is officially live!
We built this for friends and family who want a welcoming front door for anyone who wants an easy option to poke their head in and see what's what.

Android users, you can go to the Google Play Store and download the Toot Wales app right now 🥳🏴
Twt Twt!

So many of you have already installed our new app and @jaz and our moderator team are providing support to help with any issues.
Two men and three women all wearing team toot t-shirts standing or sitting in front of a screen showing the Toot Wales FediWall. They are all smiling broadly. One has a rabbit hand puppet on her hand.
Thank you everyone for making our app launch a huge success, from (almost) all of Team Toot!

Those of you travelling by train to #Cardiff for #TootWales today, please be aware it is mandatory to say/whisper/scream "Tŵt Tŵt" as you leave the station.
Thank you in advance for your compliance.
Off to Cardiff for a #TootWales thing! 🏴

Heading to the #TwtCymru event or only able to join us in spirit? If you see something that evokes "toot", "tŵt", "dwti" or anything Welsh, send something to today's FediWall with the hashtag #TootWales
And follow along with this self-updating wall of toots […]

I just listened back to my BBC interview on air this morning, other than completely failing to say the words "toot dot wales" I think it went well, I'm at the 1 hour 43 minute mark in this replay:

Cheers mate! Someone told me you replied here, but I didn't see it as your account is not "bridged" - you can see me but I can't see you. Luckily I have this account too :o) I will definitely check City Arms, looks like a winner.
If you'd like to bridge your account, simply follow @ap.brid.gy
It's nice to be in the Barry & District News, but until we're covered by the Llantwit Major Gem, we haven't truly made it...

I'm so incredibly proud of what we’re building at @teamtoot - this isn't just another platform, it’s a community-owned space where the entire team works hard to keep a welcome.

New Welsh movement aims to reclaim the social web with ‘pethau bychain’ digital campaign
A Welsh‑built social network is launching a new movement to reclaim the internet from global tech giants, urging people across Wales to take back control of how they connect online.
A digital platform rooted in Welsh values is aiming to reshape how people in Wales connect online, as concerns continue to grow over the power and ethics of global social media companies
>On Mastodon, any reasonable server would just ban the account
Except US-based admins and moderators who absolutely do not want that exposure, or need to travel to the US. The increasingly anti-US rhetoric from the ActivityPub leadership community is troubling for those who are not as insulated.
