John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed

It's brief, around 25:15

This might actually be kind of huge. Doesn’t he have a pretty big outreach?

Oh, so it didn’t do that much then. Oh well, still good exposure!

Its like with normal advertisement. If you heard the name of it before, especially from a trustworthy source, then it instantly becomes more trustworthy to you. When people seriously start looking for alternatives, they will think back or try to find that episode again.

Yeah the question is where does he personally have his social media? X, facebook, instagram by the looks of it?

I don't see him on mastodon
