Mastodon looks to newsletters to help revive the open social web

With the software’s latest release, the social networking platform is introducing email newsletters, a feature that will allow writers to send their posts directly to subscribers’ inboxes, even if those subscribers don’t have or want a Mastodon account.

My vision is that every user can use their account to become a spambot..

Just think of it. A whole new set of accounts to manually add to your spam filter/unsub from.

These guys are visionary.

somthing random I was thinking about yesterday but we actually maybe need more "centralization" of some things... as much as I like decentralization

or at least: I don't have time to read everyone's newsletter, but maybe only one good collection of newsletter(s)

so, from many decentralized voices we need good aggregation of a few "curators"
