   Another weekend, another sideswipe at #Mastodon in the weekend press.

   This time, its Ian Leslie (FT) in an article on X, collective action(s) and the alternatives to #Musk's sh*tshow... while focussing on #Threads, Leslie says in passing that like other rivals Mastodon 'requires a degree in computer science to use'!

   Nonsense!

   Once again, a journalist/writer dissing the #fediverse by making out it's much more complex to use than its actually is.

   It make me so f**king annoyed....

     @ChrisMayLA6 Ironically, it is harder to subscribe to the FT than to make a Mastodon account.

     As I posted a long time ago, #Mastodon is easy enough that...

     "I set up this entire account without any help from my daughter."

     I have since migrated without her help, too.
