      I think they will and the history books will say “In retrospect, having politicians use a privately owned platform to speak to their constituents was a bad call, as Traitor and Child Murderer Elon Musk demonstrated.”

        That’s an interesting way to say you don’t know what the fediverse is.

            It literally has all the federation features removed. By definition it isn’t part of the fediverse, because it’s not federating anything

            If I set up my own mastodon server, but blocked literally all federation, then my server wouldn’t be part of the fediverse. It’s a bit odd that this has to be elaborated on

        It’s not…? It’s literally just another social media site, it doesn’t hook into ActivityPub or any cross-broadcast protocol. I don’t know why you’re throwing around the word “fediverse” here.

          It is a fork of Mastodon though, iirc. But I don’t think it federates with anything.

          Same for news organizations. Give the option for reporters that leave or join the organization to migrate their account (aka keep their followers).

          That way they provide a proof of authenticity for their reporters by being hosted on their Mastodon instance. Obviously, the instance shouldn’t let the public create an account there, only follow from another instance.
