   Threads: account scheduled for deletion.

   Bluesky and Mastodon all the way.

     Also Meta can just generally go to hell.

     @chrastecky Meta is just generally a shitty company, and their latest changes and sucking up to Trump just makes me hate them even more

     That, and Threads as a platform is completely useless anyway.

     Oh no, I'm going to miss out on all the influence bait posts 🙃

     @gamingonlinux Not that I disagree, but what prompted this?

     @spencer for personal use, FB itself is difficult to get away from. I know the struggle, my IRL friends refuse to budge from it.

     That said, the GamingOnLinux FB page is also scheduled for deletion. I won't be using anything Meta for GOL itself going forward.

     @gamingonlinux It’s tricky because I use Facebook for work & there’s a giant and super resourceful Facebook group that’s a keystone for my industry. So, I guess I will keep FB for now but otherwise I’m in the same boat!

     @giacomo It's open source, works well and has people i actually want to follow on it, decentralization is not a deal-breaker

     Don't trust Bluesky's fake decentralization.

     @gamingonlinux @s31bz I’ll admit, I was wondering why you said “scheduled for deleting” instead of “I just deleted it”. Hang up on their end, good for you (and us as a happy benefit).

     @gamingonlinux I’ve never had threads, got rid of Facebook years ago, don’t have instagram. I only tolerate WhatsApp because so many people use it. Personally I prefer iMessage / Signal

     @gamingonlinux I still dislike Bluesky, yet I’m on there too.

     It is alright for now, but anything funded by VC will eventually go to shit, so I’m just enjoying the ride for now.

     who control the platform own users' minds, what they can read, who can read them, what goes viral, who becomes influencer, who is harrassed and what opinion spread among each segment of population.
     
     #Bluesky is just like #twitter: even without #musk, you can only serve the owners' interests, either with what you write or what you read.
     
     With true #decentralization and chronological timelines people don't get reduced to servants.
     
     To me this is much more important than "following" people. In fact, I don't find bootlickers much interesting, and to get a huge number of followers on centralized platforms you must serve their owners' interests one way or another.
