About

Newsie.Social is a home for journalists, newspeople and comms professionals on Mastodon, and the fediverse.

Launched and initially funded by Jeff Brown of the Fourth Estate Public Benefit Corporation to give reporters and journalists trusted, fast and well moderated place to call home as part of the 'Great Twitter Migration'

Newsie has grown quickly, from just a few dozen users to tens of thousands in just a few months.
