    I hadn’t heard about it either but according to their blog post announcing it, it’s https://social.bbc

    Apparently they’ll be running it for six months and then determining if it’s worth continuing to operate.

      isn’t it pretty hard to determine if it’s worthwhile if they aren’t going all-in on making it an interesting place with breaking news & accounts for certain types of news etc?

        That’s my feeling. They’ve created 4 accounts for things people can’t really interact with. Making a sports account on Mastodon, which is honestly most populated by tech nerds? Y’all. No. You’re doing it wrong.

        Even one news account would be so much more useful.
