It seems Mastodon is now "serious enough" that people want to advertise here. Well... glad you won't.

Fediverse Searches :fediverse: - a reminder to everyone that there's already *at least* a couple of powerful search engines out there in the wider #Fediverse that are far more powerful than Mastodon's hashtag based search. Both I am aware of seem to be *currently* assuming Public-posts are opt-IN by default

While I'm communicating this for my own #trans :flag_transgender: community it applies to us ALL so if in doubt, *do* consider using "Followers only" and "Unlisted" posts more on a case-by-case basis to restrict access on what *can* be widely indexed and searched as both of these seem to honour this. For me it's been an awareness-check, no more no less

2. Calckey => discussions on this are in Codeberg - ref at least 9397 and 10007

Please don't beat me up on what *already* exists technically and may be in refinement / development. I simply want to raise awareness for everyone's wider online safety

If this is true, if Musk actually does this, then this would be Musk's stupidest idea ever. The headline seriously understates the impact. It will end Twitter.

"... in a move that nobody seemed to ask for, Twitter will apparently let users call anyone on the app, whether you follow them or not."

11.6 million people using Mastodon now. It is hosted on over 22,000 servers, but like with email, everyone can communicate with everyone else.

Since no one person or company owns those servers, no one person or company can buy them or break them. #Mastodon #TwitterMigration

New post, with a quick overview of Mastodon data – and some links to articles that I think capture this moment in digital media really well.

Mastodon's growth, and communities branching: @PLOS

When you post on Twitter(1) or Bluesky(2) you grant them a broad perpetual license to use, modify, and sublicense your content. You effectively make them co-owners of your content. They can mine it and monetize it. They can even sell it. When you post on Mastodon(3) most instances take no license at all. That's right, they tell you what they are doing with your content—storing posts and delivering them—but no license.

Currently @mastodon.social is so poorly moderated it appears unmoderated.

@Gargron proposes that all future accounts join that server by default.

Mastodon is gaining 600k active users per month.

It is good to get people off Twitter. It is less good to move them to an effectively unmoderated silo.

See who is advocating this and know that they don't want to protect minorities who benefit from moderation.

#Moderation #Mastodon #TwitterMigration #MastodonSocialFunnel

I've decided to ACTIVELY decouple from Twitter: Every day, I go back and DM at least 10 of my followers, telling them I've moved here and to follow me here instead (I remove them as followers after that DM). A number of them have set up accounts as a result.

Please do the same if you're more active here than on #Twitter That's how you can help the #twittermigration

Boost if you agree.

@ZDF seems to be the first broadcaster to set up their own instance on the #Fediverse . Congratulations and welcome!

Let's hope many others will follow.

Yup, you don't have a moral obligation to leave Twitter! If you still use #Twitter, it's FINE.

Believe it or not, many parts of the world are still happily on Twitter enjoying themselves.

Also a semi-rant about being a non-American in the heavily North American Mastodon.

I was urged to write this, so I did. Here's to hoping for civilised debate!

Just in case some of you blessedly haven't seen any updates on this, #ElonMusk continues to be an overlordly conspicuously dimwitted bag of pallid shit who not only doesn't understand basic things about how the world and society work because he's a cloistered incurious twat but also pissed off some of his own toadying apostles by being a giant mewling mincing richboibaby regarding the existence of digital communications media other than the one he bought to make it more conducive for neo-Nazis to digitally fellate him as a reward for being white and born wealthy.

@georgetakei He's a gross authoritarian man-child.

Substack Notes: A Threat to Twitter's Monopoly?

“Twitter reminds me a bit of the oil industry. This old dominating force still has the money and the power to set the rules while fearing new disruptive developments like innovation in renewable energy. Substack is new, rapidly growing, constantly innovating, and well-managed.”

Wow, there are almost 400 people following me now. That's crazy! :blobcatfearful: I've only been here for about 2 months.

I was active on Twitter for years and had about 300 followers.

I've also had more and better conversations on Mastodon, in a fraction of the time.

I still post similar things as I did there: be kind, be gay/do crime, value your privacy and data, don't get pwned, fuck capitalism, here's a kitten picture.

But instead of getting a few likes, I get perspectives and interesting conversations with all sorts of people.

I like it here. ?

And just so this post has some content of value, here is a AI-generated kitten, a "Be Gay Do Crime" meme, and a link to some recent cyber-crime stories (https://cybersecurityventures.com/intrusion-daily-cyber-threat-alert/)

I think that just about covers my typical topics ?
