Raptorpat Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 nothing happening at work right now, browsing Twitter and saw an actual like out and proud Nazi in someone's replies like full on with swastikas in their handle so of course I spent the last half hour systematically reporting everything that account has ever posted, we'll see if something sticks 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptorpat Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 I wish I screencapped when the Nazi account praised Elon for letting people "call retards retarded again" but I couldn't find it when I went back for it. Would have been a great side-by-side with the inevitable abuse report rejection. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptorpat Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 genuinely the political/media ecosystem needs to leave, but they can't do it unless wholesale. if I didn't have to be vaguely aware of things for work I'd delete my account and move on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, good. Not good that it crashed, good that people are just saying they are done with Melon Husk's bullshit and are actively showing it by leaving. Even if it means starting over, for those with solid real followers, getting things back on track shouldn't be that hard once people know how to re-friend/re-follow/re-whatever on the new site. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discolé monade Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 on other platforms, computer tech (like not entry level...but their bosses bosses) are trying to get it out there that a mulititude of ballot machines were connected to skylink, via internet. i did polling last election. we are not connected to the internet. it's memory cards. no internet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptorpat Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 i made a bluesky account the other night, wasn't sure I wanted to remain connected to mainstream social media any more than necessary but I went and did it. apparently I wasn't the only one because it's exploding with a left-wing exodus from tweeter, complete with all those big ticket resistlib accounts. maybe that'll be the drive to get mainstream shit to jump over. like i can't professionally delete twitter because the reporters and politicians still use it, otherwise it'd be deleted already. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1pooh4u Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 A lot of people are leaving Twitter for Bluesky I hope they stick with it and I really wish they had done this a lot sooner.

katt_goddess Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 My e-mails are full of requests for all the people who received their particular messages during the election cycle to immediately dump the twit and head to bluesky ASAP. I think its the equivalent of defunding Melon Husk in the way he hates the most - by no longer paying him anything including attention on that site. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope it isn’t Twitter for finger wagers and people who spend 90% of their times digging up bad takes people made when they were young and ignorant. The two extremes (with the online right’s constant bad faith and general shiftiness) turned me off Shitter pretty fast. Bluesky so far has been pretty pleasant without feeling like any take you make, no matter how mild, will end up with a volley of turds being thrown at you.

So how does it practically work, I create it and then people use it to add everyone? Is that manual or automatic? If I update the starter pack, do those who used it already have to manually go back to the pack and add new additions, or is automatic? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
