→ Why the #Guardian is no longer posting on X

“#X is a #toxic #media platform and […] its owner Elon #Musk has been able to use its influence to shape political discourse”

“we can do this because our business model does not rely on #viral content tailored to the whims of the #social media giants’ #algorithms”
↳Yes. Fake news, polarization, and controversial content are largely the results of the #ad and #privacy harvesting #business model

"A nonprofit continuing to post to X is not only unwelcome by the crowd growing there, but they are complicit in what is to come.

That's why 62% of nonprofits active on X have already begun building a presence on new and emerging platforms."

Read about why @saskia doesn't think nonprofits should be sticking to X in her latest blog post.

X makes you complicit, it's time for nonprofits to act

Why remain on a platform that directly opposes your organisations morals? I'll start by admitting that I am angry. The thread that weaves between the lines of this blog is red and spiteful.

Again good news, better late than never and I hope the trend will continue: La Vanguardia has stopped posting directly on X, citing the platform’s role in spreading misinformation, hate speech, and bot-driven distortions. The move follows the paper’s concerns over content moderation cuts since Musk’s takeover and aligns with Trump’s proposal to appoint Musk to a new government efficiency role.

We're helping important organisations move away from Big Tech platforms and towards open New Social platforms - like Mastodon!

But, we can't do it alone. We'd love to hear which organisations you think should make the move and why, so we can show them that there is a community waiting here for them.

Better yet, if you have a connection to an important organisation, we'd love to be introduced!

Some good news: The Guardian has announced it will stop posting from its official accounts on Elon Musk’s social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), due to concerns that the negatives, including "often disturbing content," now outweigh the benefits. The organization informed readers of this decision, affecting over 80 accounts with around 27 million followers.

Considering the #proglibs #fascists nature of many mastodon.social users (and a couple of other common instances) from the last swarm of refugees from X, I'm sort of relieved by this news.

"#Bluesky adds 1 million users after US election as users ditch #X"

Micro-blogging site says it now has more than 15 million users, up from nine million in September.

#bluesky #fascists #x #proglibs

#TheGuardian stops posting content on #X.
This is the right step to go forward, specially for all independent media.
Of course not expecting this from corporate owned media houses, since their policies are hand in glove with that of the owner of X. ie. maximize profits and side with the political ideology that would help them to achieve it.

There's another wave of folks leaving #X/#Twitter, again. Two thoughts:

1) Almost no one is coming to Mastodon. It's all Bluesky, which is disappointing.

2) It's amazing the excuses folks make to avoid having to switch social platforms. I get it—I gave up 23k followers and some reputation when I abandoned Twitter. Still, the idea that it's okay to participate in a flawed platform and support its dangerous narcissistic owner just because you don't want to rebuild your network is really sad.

Now that Donald Trump has given Elon Musk a job in his forthcoming government, presumably X/Twitter will have to label itself as 'state-affiliated media'?

"As socially responsible organisations and individuals we’ve all put a lot of thought into what our values are, and why we do what we do. It’s time to stand up for those same values in social media."

Well done to the team at The Guardian for standing up against X.

Their statement: "The US presidential election campaign served only to underline what we have considered for a long time: that X is a toxic media platform and that its owner, Elon Musk, has been able to use its influence to shape political discourse."

We look forward to helping the wave of journalists and publications that will no doubt follow.

#FranceCulture : #FrançoisSaltiel annonce "faire une croix sur #X" (*) et appelle de ses voeux un mouvement d'ensemble des #média. Il mentionne au passage #Mastodon, mais papillone plutôt du côté de #bluesky.

(*) Sur la transciption actuellement cela se conclut par "j'y travaille", en direct il semble avoir évolué pour un passage à l'acte... Ça tergiverse...!

Le réseau social Bluesky s'envole, peut-il être un refuge pérenne à la toxicité de X ?

Plus de 700 000 utilisateurs gagnés depuis l’élection de Donald Trump, le réseau social au papillon connait une embellie, comment peut-il faire pour que l'expérience des nouveaux entrants ne soit pas éphémère ?

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:
https://wetdry.world/@ipg/113449765700357189

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.

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.
