theblindboypodcastI just saw that an Irish journalist got booted off Mastadon. This is the type of conflict that drives the emotionally exciting narrative experience of using social media. BUT.. do we go feral and deranged about it here? Or will we use our twitter for that? Is Mastadon the office and Twitter is the smoking shed?
Brendan MinishRemain calm
One gets booted off a server, not the entire Mastodon ecosystem.
If Mastodon takes off, It will make sense for organisations like newspapers to run their own Masatodon instances where they will have editorial control.
The federation model means the rest of us get to see their stuff only if we want to, not because of shareholder value or 'eyeballs'
