Some quotes from 
@andypiper now on stage at #waag for #MastodonInNL
"Mastodon is not tracking you because we do not want to show you ads. That makes it hard to tell your PR dept. what the reach is."
"one-size-fits all, global, moderation doesn't work. Local moderation on mastodon is very powerful"
"There is very strong adoption of the fediverse in the Netherlands; the willingness to use new tech, the size of the country helps and good IT infra helps here."
@andypiper quotes on journalists and media;
"You own your website, you own your email. Why not own your social media?"
"On mastodon there is no opaque algorithm deciding if your followers see your posts. We also don't incentivize doomscrolling"
"Mastodon has a nice feature to highlight content in your post using Markdown "
(check https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/07/highlighting-journalism-on-mastodon/ )
"We are going to have better referral tracking so you can see where viewers come from"
