@aral @drewharwell @caseynewton @zoeschiffer I have educated Swedish reporters on digital source protection for many years, and have repeated this over and over again.

And yet, even in 2023, I see reporters using Twitter (and other social media services) to find sources, offering source protection but no other contact way than DMs.

And this is not about Twitter. This is about understanding tools and choosing the right one.

@aral @drewharwell @caseynewton @zoeschiffer I hate that we are now at the “told you so”-stage.

Moving my public social media presence from Twitter to Mastodon has also had me revisit some thoughts around recommendation algorithms.

As a newcomer to Fediverse in general, and Mastodon specifically, this text is more of "thinking out loud" and trying to consolidate old notes more than anything else:

"Social media, #algorithms, user control, and server costs"
