@pburke46 @mmasnick it is the idiotic hashtag that antivax wingnuts use to propagandize their anti-COVID vaccine agenda. If you see it for real run away as soon as possible.

@mmasnick It's so bad. I've basically dumped Twitter since my career doesn't rely on it but I still signed in today with an account I use for local game dev organizing and even my brief time on that stressed me out a little

@mmasnick @richservo Unfortunately, I encountered my first Twitter-style troll this morning. I’m hoping that’s the last one I see in a while. If you follow hashtags related to BIPOC, you will likely encounter racist trolls. If you are BIPOC, I suspect you will encounter them even more. We all need to be vigilant in order to keep this place human.

@Bhawthorne @richservo I've had a few. But I've noticed they seem to disappear way faster than the other site.
Show threaddarkflibDec 11, 2022

@Bhawthorne @mmasnick @richservo At least there is an incentive for server admins to keep trolls off their servers - you might just end up having your server blocked

No really much incentive on birdshite

Show threadBirdie2ShoozNov 22, 2022
@mmasnick I think the "trending" items you see on Twitter are somewhat personalized. For instance, we US users don't see trends in other languages.
