I would also greatly value this please! Thank you :-)
@SocraticEthics@mastodon.online is very good
I actually don't know how to link a Mastodon properly.
Same Account, but direct link: https://mastodon.online/@SocraticEthics
That's also the same Mastodon account I am following for news updates on the war in Ukraine on my Mastodon.world account.
@noelreports@mstdn.social
Great summaries and live updates.
I can add @Nadinabbott@mstdn.social and @Tendar@newsie.social (Note that the last one is fairly pro-russian, but good to corroborate reports of progress)
I follow these:

But, IMHO, the best way to find your own sources is to explore by hashtags , like:
[https://mastodon.social/tags/ukraine]
You can also follow the #Ukraine tag on Masto
Thanks, I do this sometimes, but there are also some... not very reliable posts in there on occasion.
FYI, Lemmy is just as much "fediverse" as Mastodon is. The term "fediverse" includes Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin, Peertube, Pixelfed, and many more. So, your first paragraph kinda sounds like someone saying, "What Internet websites do you recommend (i.e. Wikipedia, not CNN)" Just thought you'd like to know.
That's fair, I think we're all trying to understand this new Fediverse thing. I understand that the underlying ActivityPub protocol is the same, but people tend to use these frontends quite differently. For example, I can't downvote a Lemmy post in Elk (the software I use to follow other people). I also anticipate Lemmy posts to be more "community-oriented" in the way information is surfaced (like Reddit), whereas Mastodon is more focused on following a person or organization (like Twitter). There's no wrong way to use the technology, but I do find the use cases helpful in organizing my expectations.
