So it seems a heck of a lot of high-profile folks are suddenly deciding to leave Elon Musk's Nazi platform.

So it seems a heck of a lot of high-profile folks are suddenly deciding to leave Elon Musk's Nazi platform. Again. But hey don't worry, they really mean it this time! And Twitter 2.0, Bluesky, is so very special (the cryptobros said so!) and while its appeal is that it emulates Twitter 1.0, it is totally immune to the fate of Twitter 1.0. Right? And remember: that Mastodon stuff is confusing, and its lack of ads and algorithms make everyone seem more on an equal footing, with celebrity profiles treated as just another account. And who wants that, huh?

@MediaActivist Still think - somehow - society needs to abandon corporate social media platforms. Cory Doctorow has told us how to make this less inconvenient/painful but somehow politicians have to be motivated. But, to your comment, that those algorithms are an enticement to those seeking public notice? Never thought of it that way. So really they are less motivated to engage on an even field. Maybe we should be boosting those who have joined Mastodon? Maybe the reward they all seek?
