@Gargron @verge Awesome!  i do have the @verge bot still but inactive..

I could send the followers to the official if accepted ofc 

@Gargron @verge Woohoo! 🥳

(Hope they'll drop the automated bot tag)

@Gargron @verge

But automated? Do they have any real people journalists on here?

@Gargron

Making the @verge now the official PR mouthpiece of @Gargron and @Mastodon

Oh good

Just what we all need

Not that I've even read the Verge once in the last 10 years

@Gargron @verge

would love to see their staff using verge dot social accounts.

@Gargron @verge Does Mastodon yet have the feature to follow the Account on a List but filter Accounts posts out of the main feed?

To not drown the main feed in unlimited posting from multiple news-type accounts like this?

@Gargron @Ming @verge Good news.

Wondering how long it’ll take other media groups and individual journalists to actually get on and use #mastodon rather than the toe-dipping disingenuous non-efforts that are so common.

The use (and outright promotion) of oligarchy owned platforms by ostensibly progressive and even self described left wing journalists is disturbing to say the least.

@Gargron @verge Maybe no one at mastodon is interested but there should be real attempt at attracting accounts from other platforms, not just for mastodon but for the fediverse as a whole.

Until that is done, mastodon will be in constant brink or losing steam and eventually relevance
