Or at least use Mastodon in addition to X.

All tech and conscious creators should do this, I can never find vlogbrothers stuff on fedi either.

It's weird how they're all ignoring the Fediverse right now.

You think at the very least they would just duplicate their content to multiple services via a script on a single button press. A very low hanging fruit type of thing to do that would benefit everyone greatly.

The vlogbrothers do an annual survey, I am not massively in their community but I like and trust them, and emjoy nesrly everything they do that I have time to consume. I put in the survey they should post on mastodon if not lemmy.

I've actually suggested it to them a couple of times, but never got a response.

Would be so easy to have a script that with a single press of a button posts the same comment to both services.

There are already services that handle this, but personally I hate it when they just mirror their account and forget about it like that.

Unless birdsite.live bot stopped working I see no reason for doing it this way.

The reason to do it is so the content exists in the Fediverse, and not just on Xitter/Reddit.

It makes it easier for people to migrate over, if the content exists in the new places.
