If your employer had a Mastodon server for staff, would you use it?
-
@evan heh, don't @ me, got it
-
We have one at https://social.openearth.org/ and I do use it so Strong Yes. I guess also https://socialwebfoundation.org/ too!

@madjo is that typical for other digital services your employer provides?
-
@drsbaitso I did not, but there's no reason you couldn't use a public server just to connect with colleagues (and set your account to private).
-
@wordshaper why?
-
@tassoman I meant "for employees" but I didn't want to get into the distinction between employees, contractors, consultants, or whatever. "Staff" seems to cover them all.

@deathkitten do you use work email for personal stuff?
-
@ecksearoh why not?
-
@LinuxAndYarn yeah, that seems dumb. Do they give you an email address?
-
@undead do you use the company email server?
-
@luc yes, I think it would be great.

@adiz do you have separate work and personal email addresses?
-
@evan Yes, and I only use it for my job,. nothing else. The days of using work addresses for anything personal ended for me when gmail was launched.
-
@jasonbrooks I just don't like doing this kind of goalpost-moving in the middle of a poll. "It's public EXCEPT FOR TUESDAYS on approval from a manager but only for automated content unless a repost by official brand accounts" blah blah blah.
If there is a difference for you between public or private, answer "Qualified Yes" or "Qualified No".

@judeswae cool!
-
@LinuxAndYarn yep, keeping separate personal and work accounts is pretty necessary.

@evan I don’t use my work email for jokes to my friends. So yes. But my employer doesn’t provide a micro blogging platform

@madjo yeah, I mean, it's pretty common to have separate personal and work email accounts.
