They could spin up a Mastodon instance, but given how lousy their UK editorial department is with TERFs, it would be justifiably blocked for transphobia.

I really wish running your own mastodon was as accepted as running your own email server. There'll be no "blue check mark" problem if your company runs the server and only provides accounts to employees.

This seems like a win-win scenario for everyone involved.

I think the problem is that ActivityPub doesn't scale as well as email does thanks to the constant need to update and cache data from each instance one of your users interacts with.

That's exactly right.
