Dear Fedi friends, some good news:
Today I learned from @liaizon that the Parisian art space @palaisdetokyo is on the fediverse.
I was curious about the server it's hosted on, so I checked it out and more good news: there are several cultural institutions on it.
Turns out, it's an initiative by the French Ministry of Culture: a Mastodon server to share "cultural news in a way that is freer, open and independent" (their words)!
THANK YOU @cercle for being here!
@_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo @cercle Yay! Thank you for this :)
@_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo @cercle
Following, great to see more people on here,
Après, heureux de voir plus de gens ici,
@_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo @cercle wow! Interesting such things still comes free.
@_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo @cercle maybe we can create a follow pack!

When will the Ministry of Education do the same? (which currently prefers X...)

Thank you for posting this!
These are my kinds of accounts to follow 👏 👍
@_elena Fine to discover you here @palaisdetokyo and I am looking forward to read more about your work and insights!
@_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo @cercle great initiative! Bravo
More good news about this initiative: the person in charge of it is @ChristineDebray (toots in French) - please give her a warm welcome.
There is a page on the website of the French Ministry of Culture that says: "Committed since 2021 to a more responsible, accessible and environmentally friendly cultural digital sector, the ministry established a 'Responsible Digital Strategy' in September 2025 to formalize its progress and objectives."
Bravo! 👏
thank you Elena !
@ChristineDebray Bonjour Christine, bienvenue sur "Mastodon"🦣 cc @_elena
@_elena @ChristineDebray
Thanks for the recommendations Elena. Instant follow.
@_elena the same ministry in charge of Copie Privée taxes... hmmm....
@_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo Such a pleasure to read you Elena! Your work and especially your video about the fediverse has been very helpful here..
It's a small experiment but support such as yours and all the great people around are definitely very encouraging and welcoming. Thanks!
@cercle @_elena @liaizon @palaisdetokyo
It is great to hear about this initiative.
I want to share here the experiments we are doing with Brazilian #Museums in the Fediverse.
@josemurilo Thank you very much Jose for sharing this. It looks very interesting, I'll read these very soon.
@cercle
Géniale, cette initiative. Je gère une compagnie suisse, @2bcompany qui a récemment quitté les réseaux Meta... Le ReseauCulture ne nous concerne pas directement, mais peux-t-on conseiller à nos collègues français de s'adresser à vous pour créer des comptes, même pour des petites structures / compagnies ?
J'ai souvent des gens qui me disent être un peu perdu·es devant le fedivers.
@mirou @2bcompany Bonjour Michaël ! Merci pour votre intérêt. C'est encore un peu tôt pour ce type d'inscription, car nous sommes pour le moment phase expérimentale. Mais ça va évoluer, donc à suivre :)
@cercle formidable ! Merci !
@cercle Welcome in the Fediverse! I already follow French institutions but didn't discover yet that your server exists (I'm mostly searching for hashtags). Wishing you all the best, may the experiment grow!
