Notices tagged with twittermigration, page 2

I'm hearing that a bunch of new people have arrived on Mastodon and the Fediverse these past few weeks.

Well, hello and welcome. I guess I'll make my own post of advice if anyone cares.

1. First and foremost, complete your profile before anything else.

2. An #introduction post usually helps getting seen during the first few days and sometimes even beyond.

3. Remember, here, you craft your own experience, which means:

4. Follow and unfollow liberally. Nobody cares about your follows/followers ratio here.

5. Follow hashtags, it's a great way to populate your timeline with content you care about. It's one of the best function of a lot of Fediverse platforms, and newcomers don't know this exists.
The corollary is: don't forget to use hashtags.

6. Mute keywords and hashtags that regularly show up in your timeline and that you don't care for. Remember, you're the one crafting your experience.

7. Learn about the #Fediverse, it extends well beyond #Mastodon. I think it's important to understand what this is all about and how this place works. It's very different from all what you've been used to.

8. Ignore, mute or block (depending on the offense) anyone who tells you what you must and must not do here (above are pieces of advice, ignore them if you wish, I wouldn't dare telling you what you should do or not do). There's a pretty nasty Home Owners Association here that gives us a bad name everywhere else. They're just a loud minority, give them the attention they deserve: None.

9. Apart from the people mentioned above, most people are very nice here and passionate about many things.

10. Have fun.

I'm just looking forward to a leaked conversation between Muskrat & a developer which Muskrat saying "f*ck the foreign / international users" etc. so Japanese users will drop it like a hot mess too. #Xitter #Xodus #TwitterMigration #SocialMedia

Senator @Paulatics Paula Simons rose today in Question Period in Canada’s Senate to ask the government why (the hell! - my words lol) Government is still using that platform of hate, misogyny and Russian misinformation called X!?

Boost to support the Senator!! And ask your MP, MLA, or other government representative wherever you are to do the same!!

I feel the fact that #Bluesky is connected to Steve Bannon and Russian state media and cryptobros should be bigger news.

But it's not.

If you search "Bluesky" using a search engine like DuckDuckGo, you'll come across results like "Here's What To Know About Bluesky" (NBC) or "X users jump to Bluesky - but what is it and who owns it" (BBC). One would think the aforementioned connections would be relevant info in a piece like that.

The omission is glaring.

Will we ever witness a #Bluesky #migration wave to #Mastodon?

#Question #AskFedi #AskMastodon #TwitterMigration

How users can leave Twitter / X - and what are the alternatives

#TwitterExit #TwitterMigration #SocialMediaMigration #HowToLeaveTwitter

https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/twitter-elon-musk-bluesky-threads-alternatives-b2647665.html

Since the election, we're seeing another massive #TwitterMigration, so I figured now might be another good time for an #introduction.

I'm Jack, and I LOVE enjoying things. I'm pretty good at enjoying things and I don't let other people's opinions determine what I like. Opinions are subjective and only a fool thinks theirs is more important than anyone else's. 😎

The good news is, no matter what you think is good.. you're RIGHT!! 🍻

Welcome to #Mastodon. Please ignore the mess. 🐘

I'm definitely seeing new followers. Hi! Thanks for coming here. I know it's fiddly but I think it's worth it.

Here's the most important tip I can give you:

\🥳/ HASHTAGS \🥳/

Like old Twitter, this place lives on hashtags. Here's how to use them:

1) Put tags on EVERYTHING you don't want hidden.

1A) Seriously. Everything. Keep them appropriate! But.

2) FOLLOW hashtags. That's a thing you can do here. You can follow a hashtag like you can follow a person. Type in the search box, select it, then click follow.

4) Whenever you see someone interesting on that hashtag? Follow them. Follow people WITH ABANDON. Unfollow if it doesn't work out, that's okay here!

That's it. Welcome!

'I'm Going to Bluesky' Is the New 'I'm Moving to Canada'

#TechIndustry #TwitterMigration #PlatformChange #UserFrustration #ElonMusk

https://www.wired.com/story/im-going-to-bluesky-is-the-new-im-moving-to-canada/

Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter stops publishing on X.
“Since Elon Musk took over, the platform has increasingly merged with his own and Donald Trump's political ambitions, while the climate on X has become more harsh and extreme. Therefore, as it stands, we will not publish anything there from our official accounts”, says editor-in-chief Peter Wolodarski.

#Ukraine and #OSINT community is migrating to #Bluesky

I don't know what happened in #X lately but something

You all, this is the clearest and most accurate explanation on how to move from twitter to #Mastodon that I have seen in a while.👌

Please share it with all your friends who are still on Twitter:

the news organisation said it considered the benefits of being on the platform formerly called Twitter were now outweighed by the negatives, citing the “often disturbing content” found on it.

Makes me like the Guardian even more.

The week is over, here are some charts:
For two weeks in a row, #Mastodon brought more #traffic than #X / #Twitter to heise.de.
But I forgot, that's not just via @heiseonline, but also @heisec, @ct_Magazin, @heiseautos, @iX_Magazin etc. (but for Twitter its the same).

#Bluesky is way behind, #Threads even more. Only Twitter is clearly falling.
