Wait until you find out everything else he’s been up to!

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.

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

Awesome news! Hopefully more media follows suit!

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.

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

Certainly full of detached CEO’s
