For a German cultural environment, substitute soccer for basketball and add the side effects of a compulsory Rundfunkgebühr into the mix. Not a pretty picture. Even worse if the parties involved don't even see it coming.
I believe it was a librarian or academician who mentioned that there's an MLA or ALA citation standard for Twitter, but not Mastodon. Hell, we could just code the motherlovin' MARC record straight into the damned protocol, if we decided on that.
