For some reason people fleeing the sinking #Twitter / #X ship for #BlueSky don't seem to be aware of the fact that crypto bros at #BlockchainCapital bought a huge stake in the company just a few weeks ago. Like these are basically the same crypto bros who just helped #ElonMusk buy Twitter. They might even be literally the same people (I strongly suspect they are but I'm too lazy to check). Either way #BlockchainCapital was co-founded by #BrockPierce, who also brought you #Tether, AKA the company that Trump's transition team chairman manages $120 billion for. Pierce is also a friend of the #Netanyahu family.

You don't have to take my word for it. Here's the official press release: https://bsky.social/about/blog/10-24-2024-series-a

Moving to BlueSky is not an escape. Growing a base there is just putting in a bunch of work to create a platform that will be co-opted by crypto bros as soon as X breaks in half.

If you’ve just left Twitter/X welcome! You’ve come to the right place.

There is no algorithm here so we encourage lots of following and “retweeting”. You can also follow #hashtags as well.

Posts are sometimes called toots. Retweets are sometimes called boosts or retoots.

If you want people to follow you, be sure to have a profile picture, something in your description about you, and some engagement: posts, comments, stars, boosts. People also usually do a post that is an introduction to them (be sure to use a hashtag, #introduction) and it can help to pin that to your profile so people can boost it.

One thing we always try to do is add alt text to images for multiple reasons, you can read about that here:

People have added additional tips in the comments below which you may want to check out.

Many of us (all?) are grieving the US election now so comedy is appreciated.

Can we import tweet archives into a Ghost instance?

Yes. We. Can!

Thanks to @Tupp_ed I have been incentivised to figure it out and I have a working proof-of-concept 🎉

If you're still on Twitter and haven't yet exported your archive, do so now. We can figure out what to do with that later.

#twitter #ghost #GhostCMS #SelfHosting

The Verge has a great guide on the export process:

For furry #twitter refugees who are aligned with our purpose, we’ve got plenty of space on Tiggi.es and Wuffi.es.


It's time for charities and for-good organisations to ditch X - a platform which helped grow and fund the Trump campaign - and move to alternatives where they aren't at the mercy of a single persons politics.

As a start, we're excited to be featured as an organisation which can help in this @BylineTimes article

There's a lot of hard work to be done, but we like hard work. Hard work is good work.

AMERICA: Land of the free, home of the jerks

WASHINGTON POST: As the country counts down to #ElectionDay with both anticipation and dread, #ElonMusk — the #Billionaire who treats #FreeSpeech like a weapon rather than a right — has managed to become even more disruptive than he has already been

“The loss of science on #Twitter is a contemporary mass extinction event”, says Professor Edward #Holmes, who recently was awarded the prestigious Croonian Medal by the Royal Society. He has also deleted his Twitter account recently. “Twitter used to be THE place where you shared ideas, data, preprints and papers. Now it’s a post-Apocalyptic hell hole.” #scicomm

Brazil's Supreme Court minister includes Elon Musk (#X / #Twitter) in inquiry on digital militias https://www.brasildefato.com.br/2024/04/08/brazil-s-supreme-court-minister-includes-elon-musk-in-inquiry-on-digital-militias


I abandoned Twtter/X a little less than two years ago and haven't missed it. I left because I noted that once Elon Musk took over, the amount of objectionable content that came my way increased significantly. Here's an interesting take from Nora Loreto, who seems to be debating whether to leave. https://noraloreto.substack.com/p/the-tide-has-gone-out-on-twitter

Judge skeptical of lawsuit brought by Elon Musk's X over hate speech research https://www.npr.org/2024/02/29/1234901186/judge-skeptical-of-lawsuit-brought-by-elon-musks-x-over-hate-speech-research 'In a hearing over Zoom on Thursday, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer appeared highly skeptical of the case, devoting the majority of the proceeding to grilling Musk's lawyer over why the lawsuit was brought at all.

Jon Hawk, X's lawyer, said at core the suit is about honoring data security agreements to protect the platform's users.

Breyer was unconvinced.

"You put that in terms of safety, and I've got to tell you, I guess you can use that word, but I can't think of anything basically more antithetical to the First Amendment than this process of silencing people from publicly disseminated information once it's been published," Breyer said.

"You're trying to shoehorn this theory by using these words into a viable breach of contract claim," the judge added.' #socialmedia #Twitter #ElonMusk #freespeech #research #hatespeech

Yeah, yeah, what took them so long? And how long will they stay away?
But it's a start. And better late than never.
Hopefully, more will find the courage and quit funding that cesspool; after all, there is safety in numbers.

"The EU has just sent formal letter to Elon Musk over "indications" that Twitter/X is “being used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation in the EU" in the wake of Hamas’ attacks on Israel."

#Musk has 24 hours to respond. I love it!

#Twitter #EU #Europe
Dear Mr Musk, Following the terrorist attacks carried out by Hamas against Isracl, we have indications that your platform is being used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation in the EU. Let me remind you that the Digital Services Act sets very precise obligations regarding content moderation. First, you need to be very transparent and clear on what content is permitted under your terms and consistently and diligently enforce your own policies. This is particularly relevant when it comes to violent and terrorist content that appears to circulate on your platform. Your latest changes in public interest policies that occurred over night left many European users uncertain. Second, when you receive notices of illegal content in the EU, you must be timely, diligent and objective in taking action and removing the relevant content when warranted. We have, from qualified sources, reports about potentially illegal content circulating on your service despite flags from relevant authorities. Third, you need have in place proportionate and effective mitigation measures to tackle the risks to public security and civic discourse stemming from disinformation. Public media and civil society organisations widely report instances of fake and manipulated images and facts circulating on your platform in the EU, such as repurposed old images of unrelated armed conflicts or military footage that actually originated from video games.


“Pointing out the rampant antisemitism on X (#Twitter) is not ‘controlling’ anyone or threatening X’s business,” says American Jewish Committee CEO Ted Deutch following the threat by Elon Musk to sue ADL for defamation.

For your own safety: leave #Twitter

It’s not worth putting your safety in risk over a social media platform

After the community rules crumbling away now also the few left over safe guards like a simple but needed ‘block’ feature is in danger because overlord Elon doesn’t thinks ‘it makes sense’ :nkoFacepalm2:

Again, he couldn’t be more wrong

Even with moderation on a social platform features like blocks and mutes need to remain in place for multiple reasons

Elon, you don’t make sense
