Tusky for client. Lots of good medium sized instances (avoid mastodon.social). I'm on mas.to for a general account and mastodon.scot for a local one (both reliable, run by the same person).
I still only buy phones with a 3.5mm socket.
She didn't "pledge" to, but she didn't seem adverse to the idea if it was the right person.
Not so effective against the likes of YouTube allegedly.

We update it a lot. We also have a product (for walkers in the British Isles) called WayMaps (used by a variety of walking web sites in the UK and also our own demo site https://waymaps.the-hug.net/) which uses the geodata from OSM and other Open Data to produce our own map tiles. We love OSM.
It's also why I no longer buy it. It's a PITA to eat.
