new startup idea from Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz's a16z¹: a tool to let you control thousands of #socialmedia accounts that look "as human as possible"

¹ Owners of large stakes in #Substack, The Privatized Public Square (AKA “X” AKA “The Everything App”), and (soon) #TikTok

There's services like nitter and pewtube, can someone make an "unstack" for allowing us to read posts from #Substack without giving the site traffic?

If you are writing about the erosion of democracy, and you are STILL publishing at #substack, or still hanging out at #bluesky, either your writings are not that serious, and mostly grifting, or your naivete is critical level.

Do NOT use the nazi bar bulletin board to publish anything against nazis. Being at the nazi bar gives nazis a platform AND funding.

I just discovered the most ridiculous shit while trying to export posts and subscribers from the Bridge Seat blog on SS. They will let you login as if you have an account, with any email address they can send a login link to. *Without* warning you this is creating a new account.

I just logged in using the wrong email address, twice, but because all @bridgeseat.nz addresse without an existing alias go to my inbox, I only realised when I couldn't find the publication settings 🤦‍♂️

#SubStack

Anyone know of a scribe.rip style front-end for reading SS articles without touching their website?

For now you can read them with all JS turned off, but probably not comments. And sooner or later the ongoing enshittification will probably extend to requiring JS to read text, as it has on GritHub.

@dangillmor Lots of "good" people use #Substack. What do you find "odious" about it?

I still need to finish hanging the curtains and arranging the furniture in the new space, but the #Disintermedia migration from SS to Ghost is complete!

Here's the first blog post I can promote using the Disintermedia domain name, telling the story of why and how I finally made the move;

Pack Your Corporate Social Media Go Bag

If you use #Bluesky or #Substack have an escape plan!

As repeatedly demonstrated, corporate platforms are vulnerable. Will you be ready when they inevitably bend to data exploitation, political manipulation and censorship? Has it already started?

Have a plan to evacuate to Public Social Media. Create backup accounts on #Mastodon and #Ghost and use them as secondaries. Be prepared. Begin building your online presence free from corporate overlords.

Substack ha un problema con la propaganda neonazista [] se come diceva Joseph Goebbels "Abbiamo creato il Reich con la propaganda." questo problema riguarda tutti.

Substack has a problem with neo-Nazi propaganda [] if as Joseph Goebbels said "We have made the Reich by propaganda." this problem affects everyone.

SubStack really pushed the limits of how fast a platform can speedrun the full enshittification process. From idealistic founding to promoting unsubtle neo-nazis to vanilla app users, in only 8 years. I'm pretty sure that's a record. It took Titter almost 20 years to slide down that same curve.

EDIT: Forgot the link that backs up the promoting unsubtle neo-nazis claim.
