Hmm. Pretty much for everyone else as well… It has become worse that youtube comments over there.
I am still over there occasionally, because some journalists whose updates I follow are only there. The worst part is that the more right wing trolls I block, the more seem to pop up.
The bird.makeup instance allows you to follow any Twitter account without having to be on the site. I follow multiple Twitter accounts on mastodon with this method. If an account is missing go on the bird.makeup website and search for the profile, it will pop up on the fediverse soon
Neat, thank you.
Pretty sure thats how the south african shitstain has it set up
I take exception to this title for being unnecessarily long, it should just read:
X is the worst social media app
I would say for everyone…
“duh.”
Oh no, they don’t censor every opinion I don’t like, don’t remove every post that does not align with my worldviews as disinformation, and don’t forbid people to say bad words towards me while allowing me to do same towards them, what a horrible place!
I don’t use corporate social media anymore, is Facebook actually taking on misinformation now?
Facebook (Meta) actually has a cutting edge team that researches and fights disinformation, they publish some really cool research every few months I recommend reading it. Unfortunately, their efforts amount to pissing on a wildfire that the rest of the company is doing its best to dump gasoline on, since that team is under-resourced compared to the teams tasked with increasing user engagement.
I don’t use it either, but wikipedia (and common knowledge) suggests they do like censoring everything https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_by_Facebook

what the fuck is x? you mean Twitter
It’s always ok to deadname twitter.
Seriously. Elon Musk is power tripping to make all of us say his new branding.
And also an idiot for getting rid of the Twitter name and bird, which most companies would kill for to have that sort of household name recognition.
Xitter
no that’s stupid
Pronounced “shitter”, its perfect
twitter dot com the internet
That’s the point. It’s stupid.
What’s the verb? Tweet on twitter, uhh X your X on aladeen?
You eXcrete on X
Tweet on twitter, take a Xit on the Xitter.
It’s pronounced with an sh sound
What the verb of using the Edge browser? Edging.
I always get confused in this thought. So if govt bans twitter(hypothesis) and these people spread to other better places, will they improve or is it better to leave these vile beings among themselves to rot in their twitter or whatever.
I accidentally replied to someone else with this but I meant to ask it in the replies.
Lone Skum deadnames his child, you deadname his company. Fuck Skum, and fuck Twatter.
Lgbt nation being surprisingly anti-lgbt by refusing to tell everyone the best social media website for lgbt folk.
Is there a ‘best social media’ for anyone?
I dunno. I think X may be the least biased platform ever. It’s complete shit regardless of who you are.
It’s pretty good if you’re a Nazi or Elon fan, I imagine.
Mastodon is pretty great for queer people. Better than lemmy I would say (and obviously better than the mainstream apps) …
Lemmy is probably the worst social network in terms of discrimination against Windows users.
Really? I would say it’s the best for discrimination against Windows users. Better then even old school slashdot.

a) funny b) were you around for USENET ? it was occasionally troublesome in the same way.

I like Mastadon. Farwss drama than on Lemmy (or Twitter).
Mastodon is pretty great for queer people. Better than lemmy I would say
That’s a bit of a weird thing to say if you ask me, as Lemmy and Mastodon is both just the fediverse and they are connected. So surely it just depends who/what you follow?
They are connected but in practice there is definitely a big separation between lemmy and mastodon… you see mastodon posts on mastodon, lemmy posts on lemmy. yes its possible to view lemmy posts on mastodon but its fucking garbage integration, i have never seen a lemmy posts boosted on mastodon it just doesn’t happen… if I see a mastodon post here its in the form of a screen shot… the communities are effectively separate
Twitter has never been great, just easy to use and widely adopted. It’s gotten worse under Musk and mostly appeals to the worst people left on the platform.
It had its moments. Back in the day I had all the libraries and park feeds in my area on it. Could just plan out my week with my kids in one spot. Yes I tried using a RSS reader but the websites weren’t as updated as the Twitter feeds were.
Social media is what you make of it.
