Log in to #twitter, see one person post a call to end mRNA vaccines, another complaining about transgender options in med. Stay to make sure I understand them correctly, unfollow, log out again. What has that place become!!!
@helenajambor similar experience here. And then there are seemingly decent people that are still hanging out there
@helenajambor there are (famous) people that I respect a lot there. I suppose they value the exposure to wide, even if dissenting audiences (not too different from what you say).
To be fair, for someone who is not much into online communication per se, there is little that the fediverse is offering. This might be different for some niches (like digital humanities research in my case), but generally seems to hold.
@mapto I stay to post differing opinion, seems a little dangerous how they are all in there little bubble and just encourage each other!? As if indeed mRNAs are the devil?! These are science adjacent followers BTW, my overlap with the real nutters is zero I think....
