Would be nice if companies can spin up their own (lemmy|mastodon|...) instances and push out releases there. No more "blue check marks" to verify authenticity or relying on the platform to be stable. If it comes from @public.apple.com, then it's guaranteed to be authentic.

Also they can additionally see subdomain accounts as a verification service.

The point of Twitter was they didn't have to do it themselves tho. Company websites weren't a thing back in the past bur became one for the same reason they later got Twitter. The suggestion of self hosting is, in a way, somewhat of a step back. But they SHOULD be doing it.
