Hey Mastodon, quick question.

There was an airshow accident in Dallas, Texas a few days ago. I saw it on YouTube, but wanted to follow along with the chatter of others and hear their informed opinions.

Aside from hunting through the #Dallas hashtag...

... how would you suggest scanning #Mastodon and the #Fediverse for coverage, conversation and deep listening? #FediTips #MastodonTips #MastodonMigration

@vsp As an OSINT researcher, this is my rapid response process for breaking news outside of needing info from insiders: bird site recent videos for fast access to video, snapmap for potential local coverage, Reddit for details/chatty experts, then... crickets on Mastodon. Perhaps I don't have the right connections on here but the #fediverse doesn't seem like an effective space for quick access to information on such things.

@booksandleather thank you, Alvi.

Well-stated.

I'm going to keep hunting, but your conclusions are both reasonable and seem to be what I'm wrestling with.
