Now that #NPR left #Twitter and many on #Mastodon are calling for it to come to the #Fediverse, maybe it's time for a recap, what we @heiseonline did?
Our account on mastodon.social (@heiseonline@mastodon.social) was registered (rather "claimed") years ago, but left dormant until #ElonMusk bought #Twitter. Then I started to post a couple of links to #news articles every day. Our web-devs (namely @entropie) verified the account some days later by adding a link to it on heise.de and giving it the green link.
