My initial thought was for them to start their own posts in a news community and then provide their own thread of comments within that post. This way they wouldn’t have to do anything different from mastodon but both platforms would get to see their threads.

But then, it seems news communities like World News on Lemmy.world kind of have rules against posts to social media content. Maybe an exception could be made for this person because they are constantly citing primary sources.

Otherwise I’m not sure what else would be the best spot for such a thing.

Any suggestions?

    Do you know the difference between this community and !ukraine@lemmy.ml ?

    It seems to be the bigger, more active community.

    I also heard some rumours about the one on lemmy.ml being “vatnik infiltrated”, but I have no idea if there is anything to those claims.

      Thanks! I don’t know what “vatnik infiltrated” means, unfortunately.

      But yea, this person is Ukrainian, living in the US now, so I’ve more or less presumed staying off of some lemmy.ml communities might just be for the best because of potential problems like this.

        Vatnik is basically a term for russian fascist boomers with soviet aesthetics, or more broadly, pro-russian people that fully embraced their propaganda.
