If we take the three #TwitterAlternatives together, they even beat the original from way back…

(Oh, and yes, there is also a peak from #X in there, but that's only from one viral article.)

#SocialMedia

(🧵 2/3)

Well, this is interesting: For two weeks now, #Mastodon is bringing noticeably more traffic to @heiseonline. #Bluesky is also growing again, and even #Threads bringing in more than ever before.
The #TwitterAlternatives are reaching new heights.

Spoutible joins the starter pack trend and adds shareable lists, calling them Community Bundles. An interesting aspect is that bundles are synced. If the author adds, removes or otherwise edits their bundle, the changes are automatically seen by anyone subscribed to it.

Half Day

I just read that The Onion bought Infowars in a bankruptcy auction. I wonder how we’re supposed to tell one service’s stories from the other. They are nearly identical. I guess The Onion is slightly more realistic? Something like that.

I have a half day scheduled today. My work day ends at 1:00pm, which is 14 minutes from now. I have a doctor’s appointment this afternoon that is an hour away from my current location, but the check in time is two hours away. Should I go there and just wait? Should I go there and then drive around aimlessly while listening to an audiobook? I finished Black Crouch’s Dark Matter on the drive to work and started something called The Running Man by some guy named Richard Bachman, or something like that.

Following the nightmare that was the election last week, there has been a debate on the social medias. Everyone is leaving twitter because elon musk is slime. Some are going to threads, but mark zuckerberg is also slime. Others are going to bluesky but the guy who owns bluesky is the guy who sold twitter to musk so at best he’s slime adjacent? I am on both. From the user perspective they are not terribly different from each other. Threads has more people I know, and I seem to be able to get into discussions more easily there. Bluesky just seems smarter over all and less scummy. I am not sure which horse I want to back.

Okay. Time to wrap up a couple of work things and head out for my half day. Here’s hoping there isn’t any lunch time traffic to worry about on my hour drive to the doctor’s appointment.
