Please help me get my followers up, folks.

BTW, the fact that many major servers are completely banned from being shared on Twitter, being flagged as malware and disallowed if added to a bio, and even banned from being shared in DM's on #Twitter, should be a bigger story that it is.

Hello. Is this thing on?

Elon Musk banning Mastodon’s account on #Twitter be like...

I've written a short commentary on extreme precipitation in #Alaska and why we, as a state, need to act now. Published by the Alaska Beacon #akwx #Arctic #extremeweather #climate #climatechange @tomhewittnews @Climatologist49

Microbiologists are larger than one might expect.

They should have mummified the Queen and sent her to Egypt to be displayed in a museum

I don’t think Mastodon is “too complex”, that’s not the problem.

I think #Mastodon requires _intentionality_: people need to be very deliberate about their social media usage, the content the consume or publish etc. Before, on Twitter, it was largely superseded by algorithms.

This is very similar to "cutting the cord": transitioning from mindless pre-programmed TV consumption to deliberate streaming subscriptions. #twittermigration

In the past 24 hours, Ukrainians have been been blocked from signing up for Twitter using their phone numbers and using 2FA and accounts tracking Russian oligarchs' jets have been suspended.

What happens on Twitter can seem like a sideshow, but Elon Musk's actions are a direct threat to democracy.

Oh, FFS. There are Mastodon admins trying to get the Raspberry Pi server on Fediblock?

That's some really pathetic thin-skinned bullshit.

On the other hand, maybe something like this will be the death knell for the centralized nature of Fediblock.
