#threads federation signals a very cool possible future, where news outlets run their own social media servers. like they do email servers today. articles can also be posts themselves. nobody between the journalists and the public deciding what goes viral. old school twitter without algos but much better.

the tech folks behind #mastodon #bluesky #ActivityPub#ATproto are working to lay the groundwork, but will need journalists to fully embrace this future to make it really happen.
