Are you angry at @SpaceKaren for banning, unbanning and re-banning journalists? And want all the journalists on the #Hellsite to abandon it now and come here?
You're mad as Hell and you're not going to take it anymore, right? But what can you do?
Simple. Follow every journalist on #Mastodon. Now.
Why? So the journalists that *are* here can show those who aren't---and their organizations---how big the audience is. What they understand is numbers.
We made #JohnMastodon happen. We can do this.
@notes OK, I just found a good list with a Web search:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13No4yxY-oFrN8PigC2jBWXreFCHWwVRTftwP6HcREtA
There is a service that was put together a few weeks ago for creating and sharing follow lists in the form of CSVs that can be imported / exported.
Doesn't appear to have taken off, but is still there.
@donmelton @JulieNye @notes
For those interested, you can also take a look at the file format for follow and list CSVs from your Import and Export page in your settings, and could probably create and format your own CSVs off of the google doc.
Unfortunately the lack of consistency in the form entries will make that a pain. Many entries lack the domain, some of them are URLs instead of the username strings, and just in general it would all have to be cleaned up to match the CSV format.
