@mike happy to help Mike! Keeping these instances going is my small contribution to journalism and the fediverse. I'm really proud of you and our team for taking this on

@mike WOW! This is big news and it sounds like really good news! I’m sure a lot of work behind the scenes to get everything moved. Any further details that you can share, please do. Here’s to strong journalism and a safe place to host it.
@Cliff538 @mike Next, find places the journalists can go to.

I, of course, recommend Canada: for a working example, see https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/what-started-in-b-c-has-stretched-to-n-l-as-volunteers-try-to-attract-u-s-health-workers-to-canada-9.7072189

1/ Announcement: So today being a news day I might as well announce that the team at TheCanadian.Social has officially taken ownership of https://journa.host and https://newsie.social. We have also moved these instances to our facilities in Canada. These are two important instances hosting a large portion of the fediverse's journalism accounts. We felt it important to keep them going as the previous stewards were considering shutting them down. #fediverse #fediadmin #journalists
Wow, thats big news. Congratulations!

lol
which journalists do you mean? the ones challenging the US or European governments on gaza and Iran?
the ones who know about epstein and kept quiet?
the ones who fail to mention aipac?
no - mainstream journalists have done nothing worth preserving
independent media however are doing well and are far more trustworthy - and they don't have big bosses threatening the use of AI to replace them

@charlesdelavalleepoussin Jotnalists of every stripe are represented. However its not my job to choose which ones are "acceptable" to you. My job is to provide a safe harbour to anyone attempting to practice the craft whatever their motivation.

@mike Journa.Host has been blocked by many well-moderated instances on the Fediverse for transphobia, association with infamous doxxers, and other persistent moderation issues. Can we expect that under this new management, the instance will be moderated according to the rules set forth in the mastodon covenant?

@heretical_i It's not my job to make a judgement like that. As long as they follow our rules whether you want follow them or not is up to you.
I'll throw a donation your way to help keep the lights on
