I keep saying journalists should leave Twitter and use Mastodon, which is better for them in every way. At TechDirt I've posted a somewhat lengthy why-and-how: https://www.techdirt.com/2023/01/04/journalists-and-others-should-leave-twitter-heres-how-they-can-get-started/
Great article, Dan.
There are two meanings to the word "centralized" -- or perhaps two connotations. Centralized can mean controlled by a few, exploitable, oppressively standardized. But it can also mean: predictable, comprehensive, complete.
Around these parts folks use "centralized" like it's a swear word. I think some of you would let be call your mother all kinds of things, but if I said she was "centralized" well then it's a fight.
This isn't really typical.
