I just noticed I still own the 'mastodon.press' domain 🤔 I got it a while ago before the massive birb migration but I concluded it was a failed project since it got stamped into the ground :flan_laugh: Pretty sure the domain can be used now for journalists or news outlets or something? I'm not gonna fire up another instance so I am willing to tranfser it! But it has to be used and not sold or something, that makes me feel like a clown CNN? TWP? New York Times? Anyone? :blobcatgiggle:

@stux Hi @acosta! 👋I’ve thought a lot about this, too. With Twitter becoming more and more irrelevant, I’m wondering why/when CNN will fire up their own “official” server. I mean, if I can set one up for me and my friends, I’d assume a VERY large Org would be able to do the same.Or, is engagement over there still “relevant” to CNN folks?

@haayman @leftsidestory I think it was many people from uh.. 'the bad side' of the Fedi but stillA lot about how only the western news was told and propaganda this and propaganda that.. While i was just trying to setup a independent /bot/ instances with news feeds It was too much for me at the time and not worth the trouble it felt :ablobwink: i dont wanna cause any trouble

@stux I think it should be used by independent journalists. There's a lot of journalists who aren't employees of any news outlet but have contracts for X stories for this outlet, Y stories for that one, etc. They could collect there

One thing friendica supports that nothing else does as far as I know is rss feeds. One of the features I really miss from that platform.

@trebach Also a good option!For me it's more like the funding part etcIf a bigger news outlet funds it for example, independent journalists should moderate the platform for example partly

@stux I don't see that happening though. A bigger news outlet will spin up an instance under their own name and have their own employees on the instance

@stux If I might offer a suggestion, hold onto it, setup a non-profit into which people donate $1 a month, then use the proceeds to maintain/improve it. With a sufficiently clear and concise mission statement about its usage requirements, steered by the community-at-large and independent journalists, it could be a real resource. Thanks :D

I haven’t tried this but, in theory, you could sign up on Friendica, set up the feeds you want, then follow that account from your account here, essentially, meaning it a RSS/AP bridge.

@stuxGiven the trademark discussions recently, are new sites with mastodon in the name allowed? I know he was grandfathering existing sites, but I didn't pay close enough attention to see if new sites were going to be granted a license.

@stux You can license it, to control who uses it. The license can revert to you if that person or entity wants to stop running it.
