Tom CoatesCan we all just agree that we’re not going to transfer from Twitter to Facebook Threads without at least making a *solid effort* to commit to Mastodon or BlueSky or anything not owned by a social giant?
الحرية لفلسطين חופש לפלסטין@tomcoates I don't see why I would INcrease my FB usage at this point.
Evan Prodromou@tomcoates I can commit to that, yes.
LeaBug@tomcoates isn't BlueSky owned by Jack?
@LeaBug No. He’s on the board, but I don’t believe he owns any of it.
Don Hawkins - W7DAH@tomcoates @LeaBug Hmmm, skeptical about the Jack Blue thing. I’m committed to Mastodon for now.
@donhawkins @tomcoates I'm staying here. I like it here.
Tim Chambers@tomcoates I see zero risk of Mastodon to Threads migration…but think a big opportunity to migrate Threads users here..
Fr. Marty@tomcoates Sure, except BlueSky is still invitation only.
Izzie@tomcoates Yeah, I'm not interested in Threads. It looks more like an attempt by Meta to grab both Twitter and Mastodon users by pretending to be decentralized than anything sustainable and distinct from the rest of Meta's garbage.
ᗰᗩᖇǤᗴ against Putin #NAFO@tomcoates And what can that effort look like if you can't code?
I wish Mastodon would do something to get journalists and analysts to move from #Twitter to #Mastodon.
For months I see no improvement in #search for research, #cite function ect. That was all announced.
Beauty fans should go to #Threads, but I want the journalists. They're only on Twitter now because Mastodon can't get off the ground. 😡
