@viticci Federico per quanto non é che sia un fan della direzione editoriale attuale di macstories, troppo ai, poco app cover, ritengo che questa shitstorm sia veramente assurda, e sia ahimè colpa della visione semplicistica che hanno gli americani della nostra community riguardo al mondo

Musk ha idee politiche deprecabili, ma letteralmente a miliardi di persone non importa nulla, io ho lasciato Twitter solo perché non ci sono le app ma c’è ancora tanti contenuti e tanta gente… fate bene, ciao

@viticci

@viticci This post doesn’t fix anything at all 😕👎

@viticci Well... you had one problem, but now you have two. Good luck! 😅

@viticci so many people here seriously need to touch some grass. This outcry is so disproportionate

@viticci
”returning to X does not represent a change in our values, what MacStories or we stand for, or an endorsement of Elon Musk.”

Except it does! You aren’t just automating links on the MacStories account, you and John are back on personal accounts, an not only that, you’re also paying for a premium membership at the Nazi bar.

Claiming this doesn’t represent a change in values or and endorsement is just ridiculous and as a long time reader and listener I expected better of you.

@viticci That’s your choice.

My choice is to stop reading and boosting MacStories.

@viticci there is no explanation in that post at all.

I am deeply deeply shaken by your move. This year will be the first that I won’t read your long release article for the OS updates. Good bye.

@viticci Weak. No excuse needed. Just weak.

@viticci Thanks for making a statement about this, but the decision still doesn't sit well with me. I hope you continue to be active here.

@viticci You’re free to make money however you want but I’m not sure I’ll even bother with @connected if you think it’s okay to hang with someone you ‘abhor’ for a quick buck.

@viticci that’s the worst move ever

@viticci
I don't have any 'skin in the game' with regard to owning/running a business.

But I do from the perspective of social/professional networking. I lost that when I quit Twitter.

IMHO, the takeaway for all of us is we need to convince friends, family, and everyone else to leave* capitalist social media...and decrease, if not eliminate, the incentive for others to stay.

*That means deleting your account, not just going dormant.

@viticci Thank you for letting everyone know your pro nazi stance so they can respond accordingly.

@viticci it must have been an incredibly difficult decision, as the creator and “leading man” of Macstories, to prioritize the business’ needs over your strong values and I commend you for it. Sucks @johnvoorhees and you mistakenly didn't share it with your team prior to doing so but thankfully life’s mistakes bring us great lessons.

Like you I wish you didn’t have to contribute to Musk either but I continue, excitedly, to support your work and am excited to see the company continue to grow.
