   Twitter is still the best place if you want to get a brand's attention or follow politicians. Bluesky seems to have attracted the Big Personalities that have (mostly, but not completely) left twitter. Threads might have the user numbers for convos about Dave Grohl's extra-marital kid

   But boy, if you want an in-depth understanding of how pagers can be used to kill a few high value targets and terrorize thousands more innocent brown people, Mastodon is the place to be

     @kims @rewarp i only wish mastodon had like some way to interact with the original post without so much effort. If I could click the post you shared and it would take me to the op. This might be something very difficult to implement though.

     posting pictures of posts seems to be a relic of a dead billionaire-controlled network, brought over here for no good reason
     we should probably cultivate the habit of asking people to post a link to the original post, just as we do of asking people for alt text (or, in this case, original text) for the picture. eventually people would start posting the post's text, and stop posting such pointless pictures of posts, that do nothing but clutter timelines with pictures with the wrong dark/light background
