hey #fediverse
so I’ve been thinking about this for a long time
at some point yr humble fediverse servant is going to get called into a meeting to justify how I am spending my time over here
& I suspect saying “listen this is the most fun I’ve had on social media since early Tumblr” is not the move
This is all to say: if you want local #news here, follow us 😁.
If we get this working I think other news orgs. will follow.
@gbhnews Lots of folks won't follow you unless you CW.
This isn't as stupid as it might sound. Folks want to control *when* they see news (not the lighthearted stuff, maybe, but the stuff that might make them down). And folks want to boost news, but their followers will certainly complain if it's not CWd – after all, they didn't follow you.
CWing a post isn't hiding it. It's almost a reflex to click on it. It just stops you seeing it out of the corner of your eye.
My 10c.
