At this point, does anyone expect #Twitter to not legally bully academics?
I agree with @yoyoel@macaw.social that this is unconscionable.
At the same time, it's more and more apparent that academia needs to migrate to the Fediverse.

@atomicpoet@calckey.social @yoyoel@macaw.social @socialmedianews@venera.social Meh. I believe Twitter’s days of influence will come crashing down this year starting in June when Instagram launches their Twitter killer (which will potentially kill off adoption for BlueSky too).
While I have my doubts about Instagram’s intentions, I think their entrance will encourage mass adoption of ActivityPub, & we will probably see more people (especially celebrities) opt to host their own content while interacting with Instagram’s version. We will probably witness celebrities & academics move away from Twitter then.
Elon also is desperate to recoup some of the money he foolishly spent on the platform.In conversation permalink Social Media News repeated this. -

@darnell@darnell.moe @yoyoel@macaw.social I agree that #Barcelona will probably lessen the hype for #Bluesky. Meta might be big and lumbering, but I also think Zuckerberg is very motivated.
