People wanted a new Twitter and just completely ignored Mastadon. 🙄
Yeah, but joining an instance is so hard guys. How am I supposed to know which one to join? What if I join the wrong one? The human brain was never meant to know more than one domain name.
The whole Internet should just be one single website so I don’t have to think. But I will complain about how only one rich guy owns that website, but I’ll do it on that website since it’s the “public square”.
I want a decentralized democratic system but the only way to get there is to centralize power and give it to one entity!
/s
I think it’s better to explain instances as phone booths or conference rooms.
That’s an awful comparison.
It’s like email.
You can have a
gmail.comaddress, and send and receive emails betweenyahoo.comandhotmail.comaddresses without issues. Nobody really cares which provider you chose, and if you really want to, you can register your own domain and host email yourself.If this doesn’t land, then the person you’re talking to probably has never used a computer.
Okay thank you
and just like with email if you choose the wrong domain you can’t send messages to people on mainstream domains without it being sent to spam.
But they are just different entraces to the same “public square”: the fediverse
That’s where I’m not 100% sure. Either each instance maintains a copy of the public square, or there is no public square each piece of content is hosted on one instance and viewable from other instances
The bluesky conference room is muting participants in the conference call
Well yeah, they wanted a new twitter, not something different and potentially better.
I remember Mastodon gaining a lot during the Elonification of twitter. Doesn’t seem like it’s all bad. I don’t want to be even more doom pilled.
Well… They did get a new Twitter lol
Mastadon branding sucks ass.
You take that back or I’ll make a mean toot /s
i didn’t, I’m on Mastodon and would never consider Bluesky.
Mastodon dodged a bullet though. It could’ve been them.
any mastodon instances off the top of your head that have as little or less censorship as Twitter? Because I can think of some that beat Twitter in certain areas but none that beat it in all
No because I don’t use it. I never liked the Twitter format. 🤷♂️
Why others government employees are public, but ICE has some special treatment? Is it because they are really trump’s gestapo?
Yes, that is exactly why.
yes exactly, remembers renees killer they quickly put him in “witness protection” and hid them in another state to avoid doxxing. avoid potential prison, doxxing by family members, and from employers.
To shield them from prison for breaking the law
It’s one of the aspects a secret police needs to work
And this is why you don’t turn to Bluesky. If they’ll censor this, they’ll censor anything.
“Our Community Guidelines protect people’s safety and privacy by prohibiting the unauthorized sharing of personal information and other content that could pose safety risks. Because the files include the email addresses and phone numbers of individuals, shared without their authorization, we are blocking links to the dataset.”
I understand where they’re coming from because they shouldn’t pick-and-choose who gets doxxed, the info in the leak hasn’t been vetted it could contain random innocents, if violence happens and someone was enabled by info on their platform they could be held liable etc. etc. Like I get it, I do, and fuck off for censoring on the side of the fash, but at the dame time I get the feeling they might not be absolutely 100% sincere in removing this from their platform since the block message leaves the URL on it’s own line as easily copied text…

Oh my God, they put the URL on the page. Sharing a screenshot of it is totally fair game, and still spreads the URL, while giving you the plausible deniability of only posting it to criticize Bluesky.
Still, fuck Bluesky for this. I told people that joining “Twitter cloned by cryptobros” was a bad idea, and they didn’t listen.
Maybe this is their way of malicious compliance.
It would be stupid for them to keep it up. I don’t understand the point of this kind of thread. You don’t mix things up, and you don’t mix your illegal (though totally legitimate) activism with your day to day communication tools. It’s just a reckless thing to do and they’d be stupid to not draw the line.
Website doesn’t even work for me just typing it in now. I wonder if DNS providers are blocking it or whether their infrastructure got taken down
Yesterday I was able to access it, then I wasn’t, then I was. Feels like it was overloaded.
Given the content in question, it could be anything from a DDOS to an old-fashioned hug of death to fascists peeing on the server rack. It was up earlier, at least. Might just spin up a VPN…
I am unsurprised. That’s why I joined the fediverse. Socialist internet is best internet.

All the more reason to spread it everywhere.

Spank you.
Wiretap, define “Streisand effect”
Much like a leaky anus. You can try to ignore it, but it doesnt go away.
Does this include FEMA staff as well? My partner works for that agency and they’ve been bleeding staff for years now, can’t imagine getting dragged into this chaos not speeding that up.
No from what I saw it’s just focused on ice, cbp, and uscis. Plus it’s not really anything sensitive just names and other basic information.

It was touted as a left wing utopia alternative to twitter. But it’s just another shitty website spouting shit.
