If you were unfortunate enough to e-file your US #tax using HR Block, Taxact or Taxslayer, your most sensitive financial information was nonconsenually shared with Facebook, where it was added to the involuntary dossier the company maintains billions of people, including people who don't have Facebook accounts.

@tchambers a few other thoughts.
Organizations (corporations but also schools, governments, unions, nonprofits, associations) all should consider hosting their own instance initially restricted to staff/employees (but look at opening it to members where that’s appropriate or to alumni for schools for example). Likely along with supporting the core project(s) (if the ActivityPub instances aren’t just mastodon - some orgs might look at hosting other apps as wel)

I spent a lot of time on Twitter in my nearly 16 years there. I really hate what's happening. A huge loss if it truly goes away; I search Twitter daily to find stuff I & others posted. Like a reserve memory bank for someone with a poor memory like me.
(I'm sure I'll like mastodon; it seems neat! But it's a different thing. I may wind up liking it better, but I've a lot of history with the bird app.)

This sounds like something I talk about a lot, actually. Scientists, generally speaking, will have a method on how to do things. We're used to SOPs and process is often our thing.
The majority of the world doesn't think like that. If your instant and immediate reaction isn't what they want, then you're automatically against them.
I'm not going to write a novel, but look at how the non-scientists in the world handle information on things like COVID or climate change. If it changes, it's inherently bad in their opinion. Only the first opinion they heard matters, to a large number of people, and they'll go to the grave believing it.
TLDR; scientists and non-scientists often struggle with communication. Thank you for coming to my TED talk :)

A gentle reminder to folks who are new to Mastodon. In solidarity with those in the disabled community who rely on screen readers, we ask that you:
* Add alt text/image descriptions when you post media
* Capitalize the first letter of every word in a hashtag #LikeThis
