Three of the world's biggest social media giants — Twitter, Meta and TikTok — rank highly among the most hated brands in America, says a new poll. Here's why.

🔴 À eux seuls, quatre dirigeants de la FNSEA, dont deux Bretons, cumulent 50 mandats. De l'Anses au Cese en passant par les innombrables instances agricoles, ces cumulards défendent partout la ligne du syndicat productiviste. Avec succès !

Part 3 of "A Guide to Implementing ActivityPub in a Static Site (or Any Website)" is just out the oven!
In this blog post, I explain how to make your blog discoverable in the Fediverse as an account, and also address some of the annoying pitfalls I encountered.
Tranquillou, Ambroise Méjean, 20è sur la liste de Valérie Hayer, admet qu'il profite de son chômage (2500 euros par mois) pour faire campagne. "Le choix de ne pas travailler n'est pas pénalisé en France", comme le répètent Macron et ses fidèles. Deux poids, deux mesures. Pour rappel, le papa du candidat est le cousin de l'ancien secrétaire d'Etat Cédric O https://tiktok.com/
In this week’s newsletter: Facebook has been hit with a €1.2bn fine by EU regulators, and the cracks in the fault lines of data regulations are showing. Could that be a good thing?
As a keen observer of misinformation on social media, Markup reporter Lam Thuy Vo knows that #algorithms and #social platforms can often favor a privileged minority.
Fou rire nerveux devant la nomination de l'économiste Gilbert Cette à la tête du Conseil d’orientation des retraites. C'est l'économiste pro-Macron par excellence. Il a son rond de serviette à l'Elysée et il répète que la réforme des retraites est une "réforme sociale". On ne risque plus d'entendre le Cor donner un avis divergent...
Mastodon is built differently. Just like the birdsite, you won't see every toot in existence but the 'why' is different. On birdsite, an #algorithm decided. Here, it's your #social connections that truly, organically determine what you see.
It works because it gives you control over who you interact with, and the people you interact with shape the timelines of you and all your neighbors.
Making Mastodon my new social platform and looking for other like minds. Give me a follow if you are also #vegan , believe in #climatechange , care about #biodiversity , #social#justice , and other matters to make the world better.
Having my followings.csv just be created on request and dropped into my Calckey drive (so I can then upload it to my Mastodon account @Artbear so I follow my people from both accounts) is just one of the coolest things ever!
Awesome feature, super useful native storage in platform on Calckey and awesome Fediverse functionality generally. Social platforms that aren't fighting each other, but co-operating effectively and you see your circle from all of them! So cool. #Calckey#Mastodon#AccountPortability#Social#Fediverse
Know anyone who is still masking or working to avoid covid to some degree? Maybe they feel more isolated or limited socially, and having more social options that match their precautions would help.
There's a free "Covid Conscious" friends and dating match system beginning. Open to all walks of life.
It's launching in Oregon, while also offering to help anyone who wants to start their own local group anywhere else.
A community building niche for people who struggle to find others will do a lot of people some good, please spread the word.
