Can Mastodon be a reasonable Twitter substitute for journalists?

Adam Davidson: "I think we got lazy as a field, and we let Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, and, god help us, Elon Musk and their staff decide all these major journalistic questions."

@AnthonyBaker @niemanlab @adamdavidson
He has fragmented the content creators journalists etc. Twitter is holding large audience accounts, music artists & film studios, with followers that took years to establish in a position of walking away from their audience.

The consumer also needs to migrate to give 🦣📬 the large reach to be competitive as we approach 2024 elections. That is why they spent 44 billion To scatter the audience & political debate

@AnthonyBaker @niemanlab @adamdavidson perhaps Mastodon & Post should share their audience reach. Where a post on one platform goes out to both platforms.
