Brands could make use of Mastodon. They should make their own instances, which would help their worry of imposters. The difference from Twitter, and the best part, is that I'd have to go to that brand account and follow. I'd have to ask to see updates from Playstation and Spotify, instead of them being shoved down throat.
I like news and updates... but only from brands I asked to hear from!

@hellomiakoda This, of course, why corporate brands will hate Mastodon. They don't want our lack of consent to get in the way.

🤷🏼♀️ Then I won't follow Playstation and see when such-n-such game is coming. Their loss.
