Is Mastodon even viable for time sensitive information? You need to wait for your instance to propagate the post from their instance which can take time.

As opposed to waiting until next month for your API call limit to reset?

I’d suggest they join a system that has users, proper SLA and an open frontpage.

As much as you might like Mastodon for being open, there are no SLA between instances. Bluesky or Threads likely do.

Not saying they shouldn’t start their own Mastodon, but not for emergency and time sensitive things. Or just for people who can’t access those other services. More options also mean more reach.
