    I’m still waiting for some major news outlet to write a piece about Fediverse in general. It’s odd that it’s either glossed over in one sentence or not even mentioned at all.

      Step 1: brace yourself, go get your puke bucket.

      Step 2: (wait, are you sure that you have your puke bucket handy? warning, there are PICTURES in this thing!) Now, read this.

      Step 3: go clean your puke bucket. You are welcome.

      Warning: those who may be offended by seeing a picture of the Zuck and the Musk - combined with NO MENTION WHATSOEVER OF LEMMY (or Beehaw, or Kbin, etc.) on an article ostensibly explaining “the fediverse”, may be advised to not read this little gem.

      Edit: but it is CBC News, which iirc is mainstream?

        Yeah, not mentioning even a single instance when writing about Fediverse is pretty shit journalism. I was expecting something much worse after reading your preparation steps though :) At least factually it’s not really incorrect.

          (It was the pictures that made that effect for me - yup, Zuck & Musk are all that matter, in the end)
