Leaving Reddit and Twitter, trying to find some sources in the Fediverse to keep up to speed with the invasion of Ukraine.
Anyone have recommendations for people on Mastodon or communities here on Lemmy that are reliable and up to date?
I just found out about this one today: [email protected]
There is also https://feddit.de/c/ukrainekrieg (but in German).
That first one is perfect, thank you for sharing it
The first one is the mod doing a lot of the heavy lifting and low engagement. but a lot of up to date links.
Here’s some of the Mastodon accounts I’ve found so far for anyone coming here looking for the same. Can’t speak to the content yet, because I haven’t had the time to vet them all, ymmv:
@[email protected] is a researcher who posts a lot of interesting stories sourced from RU news & social media relating to the home front — corruption, treatment of troops and casualties, protests by soldiers and their relatives, etc.
Other user suggestions on Mastodon:
