Senator, I served with John Mastodon. I knew John Mastodon. John Mastodon was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no John Mastodon.

@dkiesow @zubakskees Also a serious concern. My hope is this is solvable in Mastodon as a whole.

@zubakskees Yup. Also, social media has typically been a place where journalists can hold their own orgs to account for injustices. Of course ownership would love to take that power away, but it's a really bad idea.

@Snowman That's a good point. Also for unionized shops: that policy can be negotiated as part of a contract.

I've seen some suggest that unions/guilds run the instances, which is an interesting thought for unionized shops. Not sure if unions typically have the technical expertise to manage an instance, also who moderates, etc.

A lot of talk about news orgs forming their own instances, something I've gone back and forth on a bunch.

Given the anecdotal evidence I've seen about how rough transferring accounts between instances is, I have concerns about an org having ownership over a journalist's account, at least in the way that we currently conceive of social accounts for journalists. Employer-owned instances significantly change that relationship.

@Kirkman Took me a night of running through these docs on a Digital Ocean droplet: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/in stall/

Initial install wasn't bad, and I haven't done anything since (~1 month running). However, I have significant scale concerns about this as my following grows.
