@uanews I miss listening to Sweeney, though he's still on the #deadbirdsite ... and I miss his #VPDFO !

@brennansv @AdditionalQuench @mtsw Nothing different than when they started on the #deadbirdsite. ..though now without the abusive behaviour

@lolgop Not sure whether you saw the Washington Post article a couple of weeks ago; there are many people who are convinced EM and other #deadbirdsite investors wanted to destroy the progressive organizing capacity manifested in the #WomensMarch and the #BLM work, but especially #BlackTwitter Certainly, they promote #despair.

@w7voa And this was why I stopped using the #deadbirdsite

@CatherineFlick People are still using the #deadbirdsite ?

@ajsadauskas @technology

What is X? (aka: #deadbirdsite)

@annmlipton Why are people still using the #deadbirdsite ?

Si no te auto alojas o fediversomorfeas, esto es lo que puede pasar 😉

Hear that?

That is the exact moment where #Twitter aka #x finally died.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS MUSK DOING?

Every RWNJ in the world will be salivating if this goes through.

#musk #twitter #x #blocking #deadbirdsite

And of course, while I’m feeling good, my Lyft to take me to #newjob has to drive by the shell of the hellscape that is #deadbirdsite.

@thedanielsgenealogy @PattyHankins

Daniel I completely understand! I do yearn for the old days of #deadbirdsite that has everything together.

Defederation is the one thing that I struggled with when I first joined. I'm glad you pointed that out so if others read this thread, defederated is explained a bit.

@kwheaton @PattyHankins @thedanielsgenealogy @genealogy

I couldn't agree more with all your points. I am still weaning myself off of the #deadbirdsite but finding the community here is growing. It's slow growth but hopefully we can convince more to join us in this kinder social media.

#Genealogists and #Historians... Invite a friend!

(I should probably make sure to thank, my friend, @Flominator for forcing me over here 😁)

#genealogy

@PattyHankins @thedanielsgenealogy @AncestryRoads I am fine with people using whatever platform suits them. I wish the #genealogy community was more active here. I don't use Facebook much these days---but it still is the easiest for me with groups with genealogical focus. I left the #deadbirdsite which I did very much like before #musk took over. I would rather have a smaller audience that is peaceful, kind and not monetized and exploitative. I am happy to make a small contribution each month to help my instance. I am just not interested in more time sucks exploiting me. The lack of algorithms, ads and the democracy here suits me. #genedons @genealogy

Hrrm.

It’s funny to learn the backstory on Elon’s quixotic quest for his dumb everything app. He’s been hung up on this whole X thing for decades.

44 billion dollars down the toilet, Twitter sent to the dustbin of history, all those software and tech guys out of work. Congratulations there, champ. You did it. Good job. #x #DeadBirdSite

Meanwhile on Twitter the racists have blue ticks and are … *checks notes* not breaching community standards #X #TwitterX #twitter #deadbirdsite

I am truly amazed with what @rolle managed to pull off with his #MastodonBirdUI project.

I love it not necessary for making Mastodon instance looking like #DeadBirdSite, but for making it prettier.

I've done some CSS modding on my instance, and while I made it more bearable than default #Mastodon UI, I didn't do great job about it.

So yeah, take this as an endorsement and recommendation - go and grab #MastodonBirdUI now.
