#TIL about #PressCoop and their aggregation of press sites to the #fediverse

So happy that #PressCoop found a way to aggregate most of their major news sources again https://press.coop/directory

TIL If you reply to a bot to add context—for those who might boost it—that reply may disappear (only lingering in your instance's cached view of it, gone from the "original page").

#PressCoop instance policy "As these accounts are mirrors and not for engagement, replies to posts are rejected."

Understandable. Certainly simplifies modding. Irksome to discover.

Damn it, the entire #PressCoop has ceased reposting news now due to #Twitter and their API.

RSS, which continues to serve its purpose just fine, proves much more reliable. Notice the absence of a #Reuters feed there? Well, instead of keeping at least a summarized feed that would actually drive traffic from RSS readers to their website, Reuters officially stopped producing RSS feeds in June 2020, but served on a platter to Twitter all the views Twitter could gorge itself on.
