Also, you might want to take a look at https://zdf.social/@ZDF and https://ard.social/

ZDF and ARD are the two biggest broadcasters in Germany, and they both have their own ActivityPub (Mastodon) server.

In case you needed some extra convincing that other large mainstream news organisations also have realised that this is actually a good idea that makes sense ;)

A big news org from France is also on Mastodon with like 50k followers, but I cannot remember the name right now

Evan Prodromou (@evan@cosocial.ca) , one of the co-authors of ActivityPub is super interest in getting Canadian news organisations on board the fediverse. He gave a talk about that last night actually: https://cosocial.ca/@evan/110809723914430376

If you’re serious about this, you could totally reach out to him, I’m sure he would love to hear from people in CBC

Oh this is great to hear, I love Ruin and Time, and havent read Memory yet. So if thats even better, woah

Yeah I really love the Children Of series. I just realised that part 3 is finally out, so now I know what I’ll be reading next!

Love Chamber’s works so much. Its such a warm bath of comfort.

I just finished The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz. Its so fucking good, amazing worldbuilding, story and message. It really explores all the potential interesting ways that you can envision different future worlds in ways that other SciFi often doesnt. I’ve never read anything like this before.

People having issues with Mastodon isn’t an attack on your identity that you have to lash out like that lol. It does illustrate the point of the scolding culture and superiority feeling perfectly though, so in that sense it’s actually a great comment

Yes! One of the main reasons lots of people use Beeper

As a side note, Ian betteridge, who has the law named after him for the phenomenon you reference, is quite active on the fediverse

NodeBB is also working on activitypub integration
