Well, that’s my Twitter account finally deactivated.
Sad really, as I had made so many valuable and life-long connections on that site and as much as I held out, it’s not what it once was and never will be again, so it was finally time to say goodbye.
Also got me a blueksy account here for any #IrishTwitter exiles who are also on there.
Toot thought rather than Tweet thought: #IrishTwitter hounding anyone who doesn't fit their idea of Irish #citizenship is pretty tiring.
Kinda feel for the guy who reflected on the oddness of getting a citizenship to stay European who's getting dragged for everything from being in the British Army through to bad constitutional amendments made in Ireland.
Interesting point in making the transition from #IrishTwitter to #Mastodaoine.
I made this post last night about a (really badly designed, neoliberal) survey on #ClimateChange from the Irish government on both twitter and #Mastodon at the same time.
Both have the same number of RTs/Boosts as of now. I wonder if Mastodaoine, #IrishMastodon is getting enough mass to make it a good place to share and discuss for #IrishPolitics. #irlpol

lol this is funny seeing tweetdeck struggle to come back. rate limited still on the page and the columns are starting to fill themselves out again regardless #mastadoine #irishtwitter
Fastway have to be the worst courier in Ireland ...none of their SM channels work, none of their numbers are operational. Outsourcing delivery and washing your hands of it is a shite way to run a business #irishtwitter #Mastodaoine

Happy Sunday, #mastodoine, #IrishMastodon, #IrishTwitter. Do any of you know a good framer around south Donegal/north Sligo/Leitrim/Fermanagh? I’ve got a @Tupp_ed print and the programme from Translations that need doing.

In November 2022 I left Twitter and have been using Mastodon quite regularly ever since... Not sure if I'm going about this in the "correct" way - very little engagement on here. Is it just me? Am I in the wrong instance? Any tips? #IrishTwitter #TwitterExodus #Mastodonie #Neurodivergent #ADHD #immigrant #artist #CrossCultural #designer

When working from home I go for a walk in the morning. Clears the head. This morning I came up with some potential solutions to a problem. Feels like it would have taken longer for inspiration to strike at my desk. Lesson learned: walks are great!

@Thapsyrensays the reaction of #IrishTwitter to the Friends reunion was a classic - Matt LeBlanc looking like a typical Irish uncle. The ribbing - not mean, but enough to make you grin in recognition, illustrated that it could be done, even in the cesspool of twitter.
There are many other episodes covering the important social challenges of our time, including gender, inequality and health service provision.

Help #IrishTwitter -
my family uses #Skite (sounds like Sky t) to mean going out for a jaunt with no particular objective but to have fun and not be terribly serious about it. But I can't find that meaning in the #Irish #slang dictionaries. Have we been using it wrong all this time??
