In my sisters sci comm lecture today, a slide displayed three alternatives to X.

Bluesky

Threads

Mastodon

We need to be better at supporting these young academics who are being pointed this way.

@saskia #threads.?
Really?!
"Threads is an American social media microblogging service operated by Meta Platforms. Threads requires an Instagram account to use the service and features integration between the two platforms."
From wiki.

@apnoe_soeren

Realistically, you've got to give young people a path to the Open Social Web.

They already have Instagram accounts and have heard of Threads, they're much more likely to try that than some 'strange' platform named after a dead elephant.
