Bungie, please consider joining Mastodon to publish short-form news and community
It seems like Twitter is going down the drain both as a company and a tool or resource for sharing information. The API has been shut off for most third-party apps and tools, we can't even see Destiny tweets in Discord or Slack anymore.
Mastodon's been around for years and has emerged as a great alternative. It isn't at the mercy of a nutjob billionaire, and the community is growing rapidly. Medium just launched a Mastodon server, while Mozilla, Tumblr, and WordPress/Automattic are all about to join soon.
I hope Bungie can consider opening one or more Mastodon accounts to stay in touch with its community.

Seconded - Mastodon is on the up, it is interoperable and Bungie could run its own instance if appropriate. Any game studio that shows Mastodon is viable will be an example to others! And while I understand that operating any social media accounts takes time and manpower, initial use of Mastodon can be lighter than historical use of Twitter (for example only doing the @BungieHelp announcements but not the interactivity of @Destiny2Team, etc etc).
