On the Media has joined Mastodon

"OTM" to its fans, and foes, along with numerous other journalists at https://journa.host

I'm less enthused about the programme / podcast than I'd been, #BobGarfield's absence is felt deeply, and the circumstances of the separation tarnish OTM, its host and editor (Brooke and Katya) especially. But it's still worth listening to, though not always as it once was, something I say as a decades-long follower.

This week features two episodes one a mid-week short, the other the weekly full session, on Mastodon and the Twitter meltdown generally, respectively. The first episode is an expanded version of the segment on Mastodon w/ in the weekly show.

Short: "Mastodon: The Platform Taking Twitter's Worn and Weary"
