To reinforce and encourage Mastodon as the go-to place for journalism, we’re launching a new feature today. You will notice that underneath some links shared on Mastodon, the author byline can be clicked to open the author’s associated fediverse account, right in the app. This highlights writers and journalists that are active on the fediverse, and makes it easier than ever to follow them and keep up with their future work—potentially across different publications. Writers often work with different publishers over the span of their careers, but Mastodon is the perfect platform to amass a loyal audience that you, as the author, truly own, and can take with you across the fediverse.

All of that is extremely difficult on a cookie cutter social media profile.

The decision made international news, driven in part by the complaints of ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt, who was quoted by USA Today claiming that the ADL had been “silenced” and its research “marginalized”. Greenblatt went on Morning Joe to discuss the matter, which MSNBC promoted with the headline “‘It’s flat out wrong’: ADL head slams Wikipedia for saying org is unreliable source”.. The truth is a more complicated. The ADL certainly was rebuked, but the severity has been overstated, and it’s up to ADL leadership what happens next.
