Should newspapers host their own fediverse instances?

Apart from this my answer “Strong Yes” was avoiding the pitfalls when they discovered the Internet.
It is not a sheet of paper in the screen where you print your texts on. Also photos and other media work completely different.
If they want to use it to “spread” stories, TikTok is a better was.
If they do use it to tinker new forms of journalisms and create formats with and space for their readers: “Strong Yes!”.

I was also maybe the first who told the Public Broadcasters (even more important) about the Fediverse, e.g. in 2015 or at Campfire in 2017.
10 years later it pays off. Small projects begin and bigger are on the horizon publicmediaalliance.org/public

There would have been a superfat thing already in Germany if only RTL Trash TV wouldn't have destroyed it, they bought all the newspapers here and vandalized my home recently :(
