I thought they were using the ml domain as they were cheap / free ? Or am I missing the joke?

I never got the argument that it’s hard to sign up to. I think the main issues are that people want content from media entities that may not be present or welcome - legacy media etc. This could be where threads.net fills the gap but then it sounds like they will be blocked from a lot of instances.

I have worked around it via press.coop but they don’t cover everything. I also follow more journalists directly than I did on Twitter. I don’t miss Twitter and find Mastodon more informative but I’m sure that’s because of the information I’m looking for.

Rounded is the new thing? Aren’t YouTube videos also rounded now

Soon it will be pay for Spotify on the same tier but also hear ad’s.

I assume this is the solution for celebs, public figures to confirm who they are (If they pay for premium)

Could be that BBC employees can have their own accounts on mastodon going forward

Awesome news! Hopefully more media follows suit!

Elon is as a Elon does

About 90% of the CEOs in America?

That was quick 👀

“Mild cases of death” would suggest that’s the case.

Governments need to create “weird shit” agency’s. We need people being visited by men in black, weird encounters in the middle of nowhere, scare some lake fishermen, start up number stations again, set off a bomb in the middle of the Black Forest…

Since this stuff dropped out of mainstream media I think it’s why the nutters have moved on to vaccines and big pharma. We need to feed these people less harmful tripe.

That instance hosts news feeds copied from Twitter. I found it useful to replace what I used Twitter for mostly. I’ve since found other mastodon users to follow, you just need to lurk about a bit and look at what’s trending.

Outside of Musk the reported build quality issues put me off owning one. That and the design looks dated now.

https://press.coop/directory helps for following news feeds 👍

Certainly full of detached CEO’s

Same, let’s go!

I’m hoping the Dev of boost comes through

Was about to say, it’s the boost function
