masto-history help please? 

Would you all point me to any cite-able links discussing Masto's relatively queer/furry/commie early community?

I want to refer to it in an essay, and can't simply offer my personal recollection as evidence.

Articles, blog posts all welcome. Anything with a stable URL.

Thank you so much!

@brooke Is this any good? It mentions that mastodon.social was initially "predominantly queer/furry/leftist". theverge.com/2017/5/22/1553537

@Krall Ooh, I hadn't seen that one yet, and you're the first to suggest it. Thank you!
