Some pretty great talks at #UniteToFight2024 Day 1, but literally ALL the people giving talks are only active on #Twix and most of the discussion happens there?!
I could not go back to that platform for a million moniz, but we do miss out on a lot here.
Switching to Mastodon has been a very isolating experience for me. Almost the entire #LongCOVID community is still active on that horrible fascist website. I do find most information here eventually, but second hand.
N'empêche que suivre l'actualité foot renforcerait mon potentiel conversationnel quand je vais chez le kiné. Me suis sentie un peu isolée aujourd'hui. En plus, je peux même pas parler des difficultés de circulation ou de stationnement.
Imagine explaining to past previous generations that a major issue these days is not the fact we can prevent or cure a loooot of diseases that killed them but many people refuse to accept these vaccines for themselves or their children because they think they know something the scientists who developed the cures don't
ℹ #TwiX, formerly known as #Twitter, experienced a 30% drop in usage from 2023 to 2024, according to a study from #EdisonResearch that clashes with favorable traffic metrics shared by the #SocialMedia platform’s billionaire owner, #ElonMusk, and CEO #Linda_Yaccarino
Have you ever been in a toxic relationship, but you didn't realize how toxic it was until after you were out of it?
I came to Mastodon looking for a replacement for Twitter. Thankfully, I didn't find it. Instead, I found a community of beautiful weirdos like me, who give me genuine hope for a better future.
@RickiTarr I nearly never tweeted and just lurked the conversations on #TwiX because I didn't wanted to get sucked into this toxic maelstrom. but here I am tooting nearly every day because it feels just like a nice bunch of people ... a little bit like #twitter in the old days when it started.
Il y a des gens dont les récits sur #Twix me manquent plus que d’autres, je vous l’ai dit déjà. Et parmi eux, il y a #SirYesSir, la proc la plus humaine de toutes, celle qui raconte le mieux, celle qui sait choisir chaque mot pour dire et faire comprendre, celle qui ferait aimer les procs. Là, c’est le viol d’une ado par un ado, jugé seulement des années après. https://x.com/siryessir29/status/1704923705283879319
🔴 It's been reported on #TwiX :twitter: that #Starlink, launched and operated by SpaceX - owned by #ElonMusk - went down just in the middle of an Armed Forces of #Ukraine attack on #Russian occupied #Sevastopol last night.
« Is new X icon supposed to look so grungy? I realized that it’s actually profound perfection. Because with its distressed background, the iOS app icon finally gives the world’s premiere edgelord a perfectly absurd graphic style—and a mirror. The scuffed-up icon, which was previously available to “X Premium” subscribers, works as a metaphor for his dinged and damaged platform. Perhaps even better than #Musk realizes. » #Twix#Xicon#grunge#iOS#app
C’est quoi, c’est histoire du picto de #Twix, pour l’#app iOS, tout abîmé, rayé, sale ? C’est une facétie par un graphiste de chez X avant de se barrer de cette pourrie ?
One of my oldest friends, and someone I trust greatly, told me straight up today I ought to be back on Twitter for my effort to get selected for the EP list for the Grüne
In terms of audience reach he is right
But in terms of ethics he is not - I want nothing to do with the Musk-run place
It is our responsibility to make alternatives work, and to line up our ethics with our actions. So this campaign will not be tweeted, and I will make the very best of Mastodon (and Peertube, Bluesky) I can
OpenAI's Sam Altman is launching a new cryptocurrency called Worldcoin today, according to Semafor. People around the world, except the U.S., can receive a free token in exchange for an eye scan, which is said to provide each person with a unique online ID.
