"It's full of racists and trolls but that's where the people are, so I posted it there. Then someone commented somethibg awful and it all got taken down".

Said someone who posted a climate related event announcement on a community Facebook page.

Corporate Social Media is a failure and a danger.

Elon Musk: Go Fuck Yourself
#EMGFY
"Both sides should agree to a truce. Every day that passes, more Ukrainian and Russian youth die to gain and lose small pieces of land, with borders barely changing. This is not worth their lives"

CNN reporting that Musk actively disrupted the battlefield communications of Ukrainian naval forces and yet the article calls him "eccentric". The man is a threat to national, and global, security.

I would say anyone with the slightest interest in Ukrainian sovereignty that is still on his platform should now have ample reason to never go back but at this point I know people are so deeply hooked hardly anything will shake them. #RussiaUkraineWar #TwitterMigration

My wife just deactivated her Twitter account, which she never used anyway, after logging into it and seeing her timeline was just Musk, Russia, and Ads. Now I am trying to convince her to create a Mastodon account on our #footiMac #selfhosted instance for her to ignore too. 😂 😆 Not biting. 😝 #EndofTwitter #DumpMusk #Mastodon #Family

“I have lost count of how many times since then, I have been asked whether Twitter is going to fail, and I have always said no.
But now, I am not so sure - for a number of reasons.”

No mention of Mastodon, or ActivityPub, or the concept of Open Social Media… but then, we can rarely expect our major media outlets to look that deeply…

I actually bookmarked this article in my web browser (does anyone else actually do this anymore!?) because it is that on point. This basically means I’ll have it for the next 15 years or whenever my backup drive packs it in.
Very. Well. Said.

Been watching these Monthly Active User numbers closely. They have been dropping for a couple weeks now. 1,622,000 when I started watching last week, 1,604,000 today.

How do we keep the number of users growing?

For me, I have started to cross post on one of my Twitter handles again. On another, I am posting daily reminders and reasons to switch.

Really frustrated

Our local Internet is going through some unreliability, and we realized we must keep starlink until there’s a reliable 5G connection or alternative connection up the valley. So frustrated as I wanted to #dumpmusk.

I’m sorry. I tried. I’m going to keep trying, and I’m going to moan….

As his badly built cars continue to burst into flame, Musk still thinks people will trust his brain chips:

Alternatively choose Mastodon (no ads, no fee — see link in pinned Tweet) or Counter.Social — $4 a month for the optional Pro level but *still* no ads and no hate for everyone.
