MODERATORS
About time. Well done. More to follow, hopefully.
The BBC just set up their own Mastodon instance: https://social.bbc/@BBC_News_Labs
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like that BBC experiment is going well. They've barely posted anything, relative to what they could post. They should set up their systems to auto-post to Mastodon when they post to Twitter or where ever else.
That's on them for hardly posting anything, they're getting plenty of engagement when they do.
BBC is usually full of lies though, who cares
Eh? They've got a transphobic streak, for sure, and should be rightly called out for that. But are they "full of lies" in the rest of their discourse?
Found the nutjob
