@Mastodon quick question, but for those on #patreon do they get to remove and not see these banners? Much rather stepup and support Mastodon rather than pay for #twitter or #bluesky I mean there is the @buyfromeu movement. Mastodon may not have the prettiest or easiest sign up (yet) but it will outlive twitter and maybe bluesky

@Gargron sometimes I wonder what can we learn from #Twitter or even #Bluesky in terms of social medias like it.. quote posting, I think I'm fine with it, I just saw that it *could* be worse if implemented like in Twitter, I do hope that at least, since switching microblogging IS easier than like #Youtube or #Twitch it can finally build a sizable space in the internet.

Is Quoting Posts a way? Yeah, I think so, but also like.. a bunch, I can't remember it on the top of my head.. Welp, that's life

@Mastodon it will be tricky to liberate people from legacy social media platforms. People that embrace the values and vision of the #fediverse have already migrated years ago, despite the usability issues. New opportunities do come when there are major shocks, like political events but luck favors the prepared: #bluesky grew a lot as of late because of a smoother UX and catering in particular to US users fleeing X/Tweeter.

Tough job but failure not an option

@eff Not as bad as losing a visa, but on #Bluesky the blocklists are being abused hard by the far-right. Not too long ago I found out my casual art and gaming account had been added to a blocklist with hundreds of thousands of people called "Drama: people engaging in drama, usually angry politics."

The politics related posts on that couple of years old account can be counted with fingers of one hand, and there's zero arguing or debating with anybody. Seems those lists originally created to block Nazis are nowadays used by Nazis to make random people they don't like blocked. What's even funnier, my actual politics account with lots of angriness and frustration isn't on that list. Don't trust makers of those lists blindly.

@TechCrunch Maaaaybe because....

...it is NOT decentralized.
#bluesky #DTBO

@osma

"it's a #publicBenefitCorporation"

that has no legal bite

it means a company *may* pursue ill defined "public benefit" instead of profit

it doesn't *have* to

shallow feel good marketing

"it's #decentralized"

in theory

like #cryptocurrency hype, #bluesky promises a lot and delivers little, and #FOMO dum dums buy into the promise rather than the reality

it's only a matter of when, not if, the #crypto bro owners of bluesky do to it what #musk did to #twitter

#Adobe に教えてあげたいこととしては、#fedivere #Mastodon ならサーバーごとにある程度、雰囲気や嗜好性が違うので #Adobe に好意的なサーバーもあるだろうし、自分で #Adobe ユーザー用のコミュニティースペースとしてサーバーを立てる事もできる（それこそここ
#VovaldiSocial のように）から、うまくやれば #BlueSky で受けた仕打ちほどメタメタにされないかもよ、ということ。
（まあただ主要な サーバーとかは #Adobe に親和性はあまり高くなさそうだし、そっちではもしかしたら #BlueSky 以上にボコボコにされちゃうかかもしれないけど。
