Stephanie Tait ♿️I was grateful for the chance to chat with Time Magazine last week about some the unique ways the collapse of Twitter is impacting its #disabled users. You can read the piece here:
https://time.com/6230469/disability-users-twitter-elon-musk/
haven4books@StephTait quoted in the article above:
'“Even if you could somehow magically get all of disability Twitter to move to the same alternative social media platform, we would be siloed in a way where the rest of the world wouldn’t have to see us anymore,” Tait says. “If you push us to a site where we can find each other, but other people don’t have to see us anymore, it’s very dangerous for us because it becomes so much easier to marginalize us and to leave us behind.”'
SUCH an important point in all of this!

A very important point. There is no need for any of us to congregate in silo's, even I'd argue, for professional reasons. If we want an inclusive world (for all) then I'd suggest we avoid personal and professional silos. Sure, build an space that supports a cause but leave it open for anyone to join. 🤔 #inclusion #equity #diversity #ByDesign

I see three threads: professional silos (for me, this is my day job, not covid-related), personal silos (for me, this is a relatively private community where I can express myself freely without trolls/abuse/harassment), and semi-pro (for me, this is research into long covid and activism that must be separate from my professional role).

@aus_teach @longcovid @haven4books @StephTait @mecfs @chronicillness I've currently created accounts at servers based on similarity of purpose - the professional and semi-pro accounts require the same levels of moderation and access and are therefore (for now) the same account; the personal account requires stricter moderation and more siloing from potentially harmful content, and is therefore on a different server.
