Bing Maps, part of the Microsoft empire, is no better. The location tnat I half-remembered is marked up with a very different address. It's plausible that the local Conservative party uses it as a contact point, but there is no trace of the address listed by official sources.

The recruitment company is listed by Companies House as using a correspondence address in Scunthorpe, and looks to keep records up to date. The map location leads you to a working website which gives an address in Brigg.

They do have an account on #Birdplace but it looks dormant. So I reckon it's a dead end in my search.

With the 'new' #birdplace logo embedded posts now look like you could close them by clicking on the logo in the corner. Funny, and a dark antipattern. But I suppose they are switching that feature off, too, soon enough.

X? The new brand's been the poop emoji for months.

I love looking around #Mastodon, both to find folks who have migrated and also to find new content. Today, Looking for a guy called Andy Turner from the #birdplace, I found a lovely site: https://afolksongaweek.wordpress.com/. A #folksong each week.. Here's a YouTube clip of one performance https://youtu.be/Q1aFDFlK1bg

Our #BirdPlace bots are still working via the #BirdPlace API...

Was expecting them to break and need to re-key, or get an email, or ... something... by now.

Our #birdplace account for Santa Clara County was suspended for violation of the spam rules (we think, because the link to the page of rules of which we supposedly broke one or more, includes a number of other violations like "safety" etc).

We've been #enshittified

Like many newsroom accounts, we post links to content on our site and partner sites. This is what newsrooms do.

Appeal sent. Expecting:
- no answer
- bad answer (we're permabanned)
- demand to fork over $8 per month.

Interesting how the new BirdPlace Blue muting and blocking are used as proxies to downvote a BirdPlace account, thus "sinking", as opposed to "surfacing" their posts in the timeline, effectively diminishing their reach.

The proprietor of the bird place is basically monetizing brigading.

The biggest incentive to paying $8 or $11 per month there is now to gang up and censor.

@Geri I have to wonder if Elno is deliberately trying to destroy #birdplace and help other social media organisations? Or is he just a child with a large amount of cash.
