That is an interesting thought. But you have a lot of freelance workers in media. Working for more then one editorial. How to deal with that? Who should be visible and verified in that case? Presenters? News Anchors? Lead journalists?

I think mastodons excellent multi-user and migration features actually support this scenario pretty well.

I wouldn't want five mastodon accounts to communicate and always think about which editorial might be involved.

Yeah. Understandable. But would you mind having an account at one instance you trust and (partially) work for?

No, I wouldn't mind. But the editorial might. Because you always seem to speak in their name. And that can be problematic for the organisation. We have seen that with Omagate. And it might lead to the company/editorial making rules for how to use social media in their name. And as a freelance journalist I don't like that thought at all.

@fraunora @ralf Good perspective. People can get in trouble when using their company email address wrongly. With having multiple social media accounts to manage I'd imagine that would become even more problematic.

Also, EU already has a server with official accounts for some of their organizations:
