🚨 We’re sad to announce that #StormÉowyn has caused severe damage across our Gardens. At #Edinburgh, 15 trees have been lost – either uprooted or damaged beyond recovery. This includes the Garden’s tallest tree, the 29-metre Cedrus deodara, planted in 1859 👇
@Jokrates @Wikimedia Interesting idea. It's also worth noting that several of the Wikimedia wikis (Wikispecies excluded) has already moved from X to Mastodon, or is talking about it.
