@michesf
You might try adding #journa as a hashtag and then follow that hashtag. I’ve been able to do that with people but haven’t tried it with an instance other sfba (which I’m on). Not sure if it will work or not.

Just found out about a great way to #findpeople on here. using Web, search on a host site, Ie #journa.host. It is very easy to add people and sites to follow

When I want my news fix, I point the browser to the journa.host server and browse the local feed. But I can’t get an account on there because I’m no journalist. Is there an app that shows the local feeds of various hosts? https://journa.host/public/local #journa.host #journalism #news #twitterjumper #tooot

#Journa.host is part of #Mastodon, a vast network of thousands of servers that look and function much like #Twitter. Over the past three weeks, hundreds of thousands of people, seeking an alternative to Twitter as Elon #Musk took over, have signed up for Mastodon, according to Eugen Rochko, who created the software in 2016. Many of them are #journalists.

Ya, tenemos primer drama Mastodon :blobcatcoffee:

Lo que pasa es que el servidor journa.host quedó con su reputación contaminada por lo que el hilo de twitter describe y esa reputación puede afectar también a los usuarios que lo usan.

Recomiendo encarecidamente leer este hilo ya que este problema tiene directa relación con cómo funciona Mastodon y creo que todo el mundo debiese saber que implicancias puede tener para nosotros como usuarios.

I've been around long enough now to understand why #fulltext #search is not going to happen on #Mastadon. But here's where it's a challenge: I see that some are talking about muting or blocking journa.host. I'd like to read a wide variety of perspectives on this, but unless someone makes a hashtag and everyone uses it, I can't. #journa.host? #journahost? #journagate?

You know I was worried that some of the PvP gameplay elements weren’t going to be ported from twitter but the recent #journa.host drama has shown the dev’s brilliance in pioneering a new genre of gameplay - perhaps instead of Twitter MC we will have Mastodon Main Server? If this is the direction of gameplay going forward I applaud the developers of this game for pioneering new and exciting forms of PvP content.

@Arriadna @SpockResists me too. NY Times is here, CNN, NBC, and I am waiting for WaPo. Checkout #newsie our #journa

if some #journa writes about politics, having a #contentwarning seems totally redundant.
