Euh @HelloQuitteX c'est une blague ?!

Je reçois un mail pour la campagne de don de #OnEstPret sur mon adresse mail alias exclusive a #HelloQuitX

je n'ai absolument jamais souscris a quoi que ce soit pour ce truc qui en plus promeut ses comptes X, meta ... Kamoulox

Donc vous avez refilé nos mails a OnEstPret, à qui d'autre ?

Je veux bien une explication ?

@Mastodon in France there was the #HelloQuitX initiative earlier this year, morphed into #EscapeX ( @fr.escape-x.org / @HelloQuitteX ) that was pushing in this direction – but was blocked/ignored by most gov and politicians in France.

@leavex somehow took over and might have more to say and offer.

Governance concept for online communities [5]:

- exit (e.g. #HelloQuitX or fork a FOSS project)

vs

- #AffectiveVoice - consultation in #DecisionMaking

vs

- #EffectiveVoice - participation in #DecisionMaking

Corollary: providing the conceptual tools and empirical evidence about how online governance can evolve away from implicit feudalism and towards effective voice could have huge local and global sociopolitical benefits. Cyberspace has real sociopolitical power in the 2020s.

Je rappelle qu'il y a actuellement une pétition sur le site de l'Assemblée Nationale demandant au gouvernement d'arrêter de faire ses communications officielles sur X (ex-Twitter).
Si elle atteint 100.000 signatures, il y aura un boost de visibilité par l'AN elle-même :

I'm starting a list of initiatives that aim to move people from capitalist social media and to the Fediverse.

Help me add the ones I forgot.

A group of researchers at France's CNRS public research body have developed an app to help users migrate from X to other platforms. The "HelloQuitX" campaign (a play on "Hello Kitty," since the letter Q sounds like K and X is pronounced "eeks" in French) allows users to transfer the lists of people they follow and their followers to Bluesky or Mastodon. The CNRS says it will delete personal information after migration. David Chavalarias, a mathematician at CNRS, says more than 5,000 people and organizations have signed up so far. Here's more from France 24.

BTW, note that while #HelloQuitX is raising money via donations, it looks like it's money that is going to be used for activism/information on a number of IT-related topics.

That too is great!

But users should be aware that it is not money going towards making Mastodon hosting sustainable.

Here in France the #HelloQuitX initiative https://www.helloquitx.com/ to leave #Twitter/X—and join Mastodon or Bluesky as better options—has gathered a lot of attention: politicians are talking about it in prime time on major medias.

That's great!

My only nit with the initiative is that it is not encouraging to donate to the chosen Mastodon server (for people choosing that over Bluesky).

A better social media world also needs users to understand there is no free lunch for hosting costs.

Hello world 😎 !

J-8 : #helloquitX parce que Musk attaque Keir Starmer, Premier ministre anglais, avec des accusations infondées.

X est devenu un outil de propagation de fake news.

Je partage ici un argumentaire que je viens d'envoyer à la direction de mon institution / centre de recherche, pour les inciter à quitter X et Meta, dans le sillage de Polytechnique :

https://cloud.raphael-jolivet.name/nextcloud/s/RoLnXG5rJW5qis4/download/modele-argumentation-exode-x-meta.pdf

C'est assez orienté recherche / académique mais peut être adapté à d'autres secteurs.

J'y mentionne l'exode prévu le 20 janvier avec #HelloQuiteX

For English speakers who do not speak French:

I wanted to let you know about this awesome movement started in France to encourage people to quit X (Twitter) on January 20.

You can follow it here with the hashtag #HelloQuitX and use Mastodon's translation feature to read the posts (if your server has it). You can read more about this movement on this website (in English): https://www.helloquitx.com/

You can support this movement by following it on Mastodon, and sharing widely: @helloQuitX
