Resolved
YES

Resolves YES if one of these criteria is met by any one of the Similarweb top 50 news sites (archived here - https://archive.is/2023.07.04-054251/https://www.similarweb.com/top-websites/news-and-media/ )

  • Include a Share link to a Fediverse platform as part of their “Share to social media” link set.

  • Set up a Fediverse instance on their own domain, which their journalists can use to broadcast to the Fediverse.

  • Actively maintain a brand Fediverse presence on a domain not their own. Note that this must be an official, brand-owned presence, individual journalists posting in an unofficial / freelance capacity would not count. Must be in operation for at least two months to resolve YES.

  • Offer an “interact with us on X” feature where X is a Fediverse instance.

  • If you can make another argument that an org has meaningfully engaged with the Fediverse then I will consider them.

    The only things I’d rule out so far are:

  • articles written about the Fediverse, this alone is not enough engagement to warrant a YES resolution.

  • Internal-only / unfederated instances of Fediverse platforms.

  • For the purposes of this question, email is not part of the Fediverse.

For reference I would consider any of the platforms in the below graphic to be part of the Fediverse, other platforms may be considered if there’s a strong argument that they should be included.
