I have ratioed the Mayor of #London on X (formerly #Twitter) regarding a map of an Overground proposal from 10 years ago. 🤯🛤️

#DIDit I never had an X/Twitter or Bluesky account. I deleted my Facebook and Instagram accounts last year. I've been active on the Fediverse since 2018 (self-hosting Mastodon, Peertube and Pixelfed). #DID #DUT #SelfHosting #BigTech #UnplugBigTech #UnplugTrump #X #Twitter #Bluesky #Threads #Meta #Facebook #Instagram #Insta #Fediverse #Mastodon #Peertube

なんで #Tumblr の話かと言えば、現在的にTumblrはどういう使い方をするのが「正解」なのかな、と悩んでいるから。 #Twitter (当時)の頃は長文投稿サービス然とした使い方をしていたけど、 #X になってからはプランによっては投稿が140字でなくなったし、そもそも #mastodon や #misskey なら、大体のポストは文字数を気にする必要がない程度には長文投稿が可能になって、そういう使い道では出番がなくなったよね。

Read this if you want a reminder why people still hang out on #X / #Twitter , #Facebook , #Instagram and so forth. A lot of people on the #Fediverse assume that the social communities on these platforms could simply reform on the Fediverse. But this isn't going to happen. When a social platform crashes, its social communities are usually gone permanently. I mean, I made the decision to leave Twitter, but I do miss a lot of the awesome people there whom I interacted with. And for others, the loss would be _far_ more acute. So instead of being moralistic about ordinary users on other platforms, we should work harder to build awesome communities here - hopefully ones that are more diverse than what the Fediverse has right now. https://pluralistic.net/2026/02/26/hanged-for-a-sheep/

A popular right-wing account that called a video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes "a masterpiece" appears to be run by a White House staffer, according to records reviewed by WIRED. https://www.wired.com/story/a-white-house-staffer-appears-to-run-massive-pro-trump-meme-page/ #WhiteHouse #TrumpAdministration #Twitter #Politics #SocialMedia

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release: #TfL has disclosed spending on its account on X, formerly #Twitter, following a Freedom of Information request. TfL confirmed it holds the requested information. The applicant asked how much money, excluding labour costs, TfL spent on maintaining its X account in the 2024/25 and 2025/26 #financial years. TfL said it spent £201.60 in each year on a Premium Plus subscription. The organisation confirmed it did not run any paid advertising on X in either year and incurred no additional costs for managing the channel. It added that X is one of several social media platforms used by its team to engage with customers and promote its work. https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/transparency/freedom-of-information/foi-request-detail?referenceId=FOI-4171-2526

Everything about this episode of This Week with John Oliver reinforces that I made the right decision to abandon Twitter in favor of Mastodon/the Fediverse. #twitter #elonmusk #socialmedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7ZG_xWYLzI

RE: https://mastodon.scot/@anexiledscot/116099520695852492 Elizabeth Jacobs, PhD on Bluesky (a kind of Twitter / wannabee big-tech): "A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter's algorithmic feed significantly shifts people's political views to the right. Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement. This is one of the most concerning papers I've read in awhile."

This is worrying. I always suspected that exposure to X's algorithmic feed shifted people's views to the right, well, it's been confirmed by this research. This is why the Right invest so much in X, it's a tool to move whole demographics to the right.

Maybe you should review your premise in the first place. What do you mean exactly by 'protecting vulnerable groups' This is decentralized social media for God's sake! What are they _and what are you too_? 10 year Olds?? Your line of thinking will quickly produce #Twitter again (before Elon Musk), which was replicated now by #Bluesky. Jack Dorsey himself left Bluesky because of that. I have a question to you and it's a serious one. Can I call # Muhammad the prophet of Islam a pedophile? And if I can or cannot on this instance, who decides exactly what I can or cannot say? If a Muslim complained to you that this remark deeply hurts their feelings _and it sure does for some_, will they be considered a 'vulnerable group'? I don't really expect a sophisticated answer or anything but I truly want you to contemplate these questions before deciding to act like keyboard superhero and start deciding who gets to express their opinion or not.

Idee zum #DID #DUT: Schreibt Abgeordnete, von denen Ihr wisst, dass sie noch auf #X / #Twitter sind per #email an und fragt sie, warum sie noch auf der rechtsgerichteten Plattform eines #US -Tech-Unternehmens posten. Adresse finden: Gebt in die Suchmaschine ein: "Name - Bundestag/Landtag - email"

In light of Bluesky’s myriad concerning decisions, I’m finding myself spending increasing amounts of time on Mastodon. I wonder if others feel the same. Similarly, I’m enjoying the discovery of new voices, and feel my interest in those pledging continued loyalty to Meta and/or Musk is beginning to feel strained. Which I also feel might not be so uncommon. #socialmedia #meta #threads #twitter #x #mastodon #migration
