Zsolt 📍🇭🇺 | 💪🇦🇲🇧🇦🇵🇸🇺🇦wondering how can we get our fellow (elder) #millennial (elder) emos en masse on the #opensocialweb. bands are still in the #zuckerverse - #instagram & #facebook -, in the #elonverse, so are fans. have we become too comformists, or is it the deeply rooted & expected monetization on these platforms?
but it's not just music, which was a centerpiece of my online life in the mid/late 2000s. tech content creators like @captain2phones.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy move to #threads - #zuckerverse that pretends to be #opensocialweb -, because monetization: bsky.app/profile/capt...

the #Zuckerverse is intolerable as method of current info sharing.
@indivisibleteam groups need to find a better way

Marc CarsonSometimes Meta AI tries so hard to be helpful that I just gotta give it something to do. #ai #meta #zuckerverse #llama #agreeable
Guido Stevens@urlyman Short answer to both questions: #FediPact. I did not abandon Twitter and FB, to then get re-colonized here. As I've said before: I will not get suckered into the #zuckerverse.
The way I see it, federating with #threads poses 3 problems.
1. They emit trash. As in: #nazi and other hate talk not being moderated.
2. They ingest data. Anybody who thinks #meta deserves a chance in that regards is bonkers.
3. Network dynamics. Once you federate and people build connections, defederation becomes so disruptive that it becomes progressively more difficult over time. We should nip such asymmetrical power imbalances in the bud.
Framing this as an individual choice, rather than as a collective action, misses aspects of all 3 problems.
I'm more than a bit surprised, how this is apparently not self-evident to many people. You'd think the trainwrecks of Twitter and FB would have opened people's eyes to the abhorrent dystopia of corporate social media, and their #techbro data capitalism. Isn't that why we're here, and not there???
As to choosing kolektiva.social: I like the vibe, it fits my politics, and the content moderation policies look rather sane. Plus, I get to post a long rant like this, and I still have >85% of my character limit left 😁.
If you made it this far, you deserve a flower 🌼 🌸
Ted Curran M. Ed.@manlycoffee Agreed. You mention Instagram, but their sister site #Threads is a prime candidate to become that #GlobalTownHall, again wholly owned by the #Zuckerverse.
Part of the thrill of talking on pre-Elon Twitter was the chance that your words could have an impact. In here it feels like shouting down a (very nice) bottomless hole.

ophiocephalic 🐍Trying to imagine what it will be like for the part of the fediverse that federates with Threads and is subjected to a censorship regime that includes blocklisting terms like "covid" and "long covid". So much of the discourse here is in free and open defiance of pro-disease necropolitics. People in the Facebook Fediverse will need to fall back on the old corporate-social-media protocol of using code words or deliberate misspellings to covertly talk about subjects they know the algorithms will tank
#FediPact #DefederateMeta #Meta #Facebook #Threads #FacebookFediverse #Zuckerverse
It would be a mistake to interpret the current lull in interest, and the odd nature of the Threads launch, as reasons to relax. On the contrary, this is the perfect moment to act on the protective impulses that engendered the FediPact.
Moreover, the push towards centralization, surveillance and algorithmic harvesting by Facebook-linked authoritarians, which is meeting no resistance from those at the top of the development and administrative hierarchy, makes urgent action nothing less than a necessity for everyone of a marginalized or targeted identity, all true believers in FLOSS, and radicals of every stripe.
This is the time to convene, prefigure, and build a Free Fediverse.
