A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It looks like it will require a manual review process for now but it could be automated down the line.

It sounds like the linking is automated, just website approval is manual:

In the future we would like to make the feature available to all without a manual review process. For now, if you’re part of a news organization, please reach out to us at hello@joinmastodon.org so we can enable it for your website.

The problem with this approach is, that they get to decide who is a journalist and who is not.

Sure, but someone should probably make sure Ben Shapiro isn't marked as a journalist...
