    1/ Announcement: So today being a news day I might as well announce that the team at TheCanadian.Social has officially taken ownership of https://journa.host and https://newsie.social. We have also moved these instances to our facilities in Canada. These are two important instances hosting a large portion of the fediverse's journalism accounts. We felt it important to keep them going as the previous stewards were considering shutting them down. #fediverse #fediadmin #journalists

      2/ I'd like to thank @jeff and his team for creating and stewarding a safe harbour for journalist in the fediverse. We hope that our small team can maintain the same levels of professionalism and dedication to keeping journalism alive and well in the fediverse. #fediverse #fediadmin #journalism.

          @mike WOW! This is big news and it sounds like really good news! I’m sure a lot of work behind the scenes to get everything moved. Any further details that you can share, please do. Here’s to strong journalism and a safe place to host it.

            3/ I'd also like to particularly thank @quaff who spearheaded the technical move and managed to do so with minimal downtime. It was a feat of ops engineering and we're very luck to have him. #fediverse #fediadmin #journalism

                @Cliff538 @mike Next, find places the journalists can go to.

                https://ca.news.yahoo.com/americans-leaving-u-record-numbers-164720957.html

                I, of course, recommend Canada: for a working example, see https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/what-started-in-b-c-has-stretched-to-n-l-as-volunteers-try-to-attract-u-s-health-workers-to-canada-9.7072189

                    lol

                    which journalists do you mean? the ones challenging the US or European governments on gaza and Iran?

                    the ones who know about epstein and kept quiet?

                    the ones who fail to mention aipac?

                    no - mainstream journalists have done nothing worth preserving

                    independent media however are doing well and are far more trustworthy - and they don't have big bosses threatening the use of AI to replace them

                      @charlesdelavalleepoussin Jotnalists of every stripe are represented. However its not my job to choose which ones are "acceptable" to you. My job is to provide a safe harbour to anyone attempting to practice the craft whatever their motivation.
