Mastodon | Social Media Empowering Independent Journalism
Join Mastodon for aperitivo at the International Journalism Festival!
Are you curious about how Mastodon and the Fediverse are shaping the media landscape for independent journalists? At a time when legacy platforms increasingly challenge press freedom, decentralized social networks provide an alternative - built on transparency and authenticity, and offering data sovereignty.
We will start with a short presentation covering the latest developments in Mastodon, highlighting new features tailored for journalists. This will also cover organisational changes to safeguard Mastodon's independence, and describe our vision for a more resilient and open social web. After our update, join a discussion and networking session with the Mastodon team, where you can share your ideas and experiences.
Complimentary drinks and light bites will be provided. Participation is free, but places are limited.
We are looking forward to sharing ideas and building new relationships - see you there.
Location: Umbrò (Via Guglielmo Oberdan, 58, Via Sant'Ercolano, 2, 06121 Perugia PG, Italy)
