Ich moechte nicht, dass du so schnell aufgibst und sehe das wirklich nicht so, dass es hier nur fuer groesse Accounts funktioniert.

Was sind deine Interessen? Gibt es da besondere Themen? Du folgst ja auch recht wenigen Konten.

Ich wuerde gerne helfen, dich von Mastodon zu ueberzeugen

Natürlich muss man etwas #Geduld mit #Mastodon haben, weil man nicht auf #Reichweiten wie bei #Xitter oder #WhatsApp kommt. Allerdings werden die #Posts weltweit gelesen, aber man muss natürlich auch #Follower generieren, ansonsten ist es eher #unidirektional, wie eine #Zeitung halt. Mir sind allerdings solche #Follower-Zahlen, wie 16,5K völlig schleierhaft, wie man die hier zusammenkriegt. Sind das " #Fans" aus #Twitter-Zeiten ?

Hello big media,

#YouTube is not another technology to get your content out to people and make money. It is a competitor. Same with #xitter and #tiktok and the #meta platforms.

You're thinking of #peertube and #ActivityPub. Work with us to build the ecosystem that helps everyone more fairly compete. Better for the free market and civics.

thanks from the #SocialWeb

We have to bulld a new healthier open social web. The current closed, commercialized siloes are indeed a cancer.

GOV. COX:
"Social media has played a direct role in every single assassination and assassination attempt that we have seen over the last 5, 6 years. There is no question... Cancer probably isn't a strong enough word. What we have done especially to our kids, it took us decade to realize how evil these algorithms are."

@span tchambers facebook, threads, bluesky are the WRONG answer, as the current events have clearly shown.

EVERY corporate owned (yes, blewski is vc crypto techbro owned) is a toxic negative entity. NO, none of them are the Fediverse, just unfortunately "bridged" to here.

No exceptions.

Just got an email from #apple about podcasts with links to their #xitter, #TikTok and #facebook accounts. Seems so weak.

Why don't these other big tech players try to take down their competitors by promoting #ActivityPub? It would cost them nothing. Run a server etc. Promote it in their other products. Fund development just a little. They don't need to win, just weaken the other guys.

I was told this is how capitalism works :P

@LaurensHof
> Bluesky has launched a new verification system for their platform, with blue checkmarks

Their side quest to speed run the history of Titter continues : P

As @LaurensHof points out, once again they're claiming to "distribute power", while building infrastructure in ways that totally centralises power in their hands. It's getting hard to assume this is a good faith mistake, rather than a cynical reputation laundering strategy.

We have this expression in Tennessee, maybe you have it on the Fediverse: "Fool me once, shame on you,
Fool me twice, you, you can't get fooled again."
