Very cool, maybe mastodon will finally take off.

It has 7+ million users. It is way past taking off

And still has hardly any content. Maybe it's out there but it's nearly impossible to find.

Here you can load up and instantly get to the good stuff and start enjoying your time.

Let’s hope other news institutions follow suit 🙌
