Mastodawn

We've been on X/Twitter for many years, but it's time to reduce our activity there and instead promote Mastodon as our main social media channel now. So we've done just that: https://x.com/LibreOffice/status/2026204949760131158 – Welcome to all our new followers here 😊

LibreOffice (@LibreOffice) on X

Hello, world! 👋 From now on, Mastodon is our preferred social media channel. It's an open source, decentralised platform – not controlled by tech giants. Follow us here: https://t.co/KZpwR61V5R

Heerlijk nieuws. Top! 👍

G 🇮🇹Feb 24

@libreoffice Yuss! 🙌

@libreoffice
Wonderful to have you here.
Breath the free air!

Schimmelreiter Feb 24

@libreoffice Don’t be surprised if you get a reprimand for that on X. And the question remains how many of your followers will see it there.

Matthew 🖖Feb 24

@Schimmelreiter @libreoffice already happening haha

Micdan 💾Feb 24

@mcbaumwolle @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice Yeah, there was a bunch of unsupportive comments on Shitter :'(

@micdan @mcbaumwolle @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice

Everybody still there is either a nazi or some masochist

@mcbaumwolle @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice
@Ben_W_Ritter@twitter.com just showed the world his incompetence at anything, including his professed field of "developing" any sort of programme. #Slow_Hand_Clap

Cameron Bosch Feb 24

@mcbaumwolle @libreoffice They're just desperately trying to excuse nole ksum doing anything and everything to drive projects and users off of the platform.

I'm so glad I don't not use X and my account on their is basically dead.

Cameron Bosch Feb 24

@mcbaumwolle @libreoffice Based on what I can see here, you might as well cut X use off completely. https://xcancel.com/LibreOffice/status/2026204949760131158

Dude with a faux NFT monkey profile pic:
"So please delete your account here, otherwise stop annoying people with your moral compass."

Dear God, kill Xitter with fire. XD

@cameron_bosch @mcbaumwolle @libreoffice haha! The replies are hilarious

AdventureTense Feb 25

@cameron_bosch @mcbaumwolle @libreoffice Wow, that was enlightening. X is quite the hostile place. Funny how people who clearly don't use Mastodon, know all about Mastodon. Glad you're here LibreOffice.

@mcbaumwolle @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice And they say Mastodon's an echo chamber! I guess they latched onto the "it's too complicated" narrative from 2022.

@mcbaumwolle @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice nice one finn, whoever you are :)

Matthew 🖖Feb 24

@chewie @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice omg he's here! @finn

Finn 🔜 #EF30 Feb 24

@mcbaumwolle @chewie @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice
Glad to see my fun carry over :3

@mcbaumwolle @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice not used by anyone, but this post on fediverse has more comments, more retoot and more likes than the one on Xitter, where the account has twice as many followers

Matthew 🖖Feb 24

@zii_0 @Schimmelreiter @libreoffice I literally tell this about who asks me anything about #fedi because the actual interaction rate here seems so much better and more human.

@Schimmelreiter @libreoffice i'm guessing they'll go with 'that's partially why' on both counts

Antimundo Feb 24

@libreoffice So cool, thanks!

Great news!

Dennis Melhede Feb 24

@libreoffice@fosstodon.org nice to see you here. Welcome ❤

Simon Justesen Feb 24

@libreoffice Wise choice! ;)

Jakob Boos Feb 24

@libreoffice Good decision! Welcome.

@libreoffice welcome here 💚

LibreOffice Feb 24

@rifka Thanks! We've been here since 2019, of course, and just as active here as anywhere else 😊

Baharul Islam Feb 24

@libreoffice
Good job. Wish others thought like this.

Sebastian Feb 24

@libreoffice Great! Welcome. 👋🏼 I’m using LibreOffice and love it!

Eric Redegeld💻🏎️☀️🙋💖Feb 24

@libreoffice well, you also welcome at justbsocial.eu the group libreoffice there would be great

Clarissa Feb 24

@libreoffice @simonjay Congrats, even if it’s late. The Fediverse is the obvious choice for FOSS.

LibreOffice Feb 24

@clarissawam Well, we've been on here since 2019 😉 And just as active here – if not more, due to the more technical audience here.

Marion Grau Feb 24

@libreoffice @clarissawam but somehow you do not have a profil picture which seems pretty weird. Maybe invest in one now?

wortezimmer Feb 24

@marion_grau
They have the perfect profile picture for their account.

@libreoffice @clarissawam

Niko Trimmel Feb 24

@marion_grau if you dont see a profile picture for @libreoffice , that is probably due to a caching error or federation error on your instance climatejustice.social

Celia Valdeolmillos Feb 24

@libreoffice well done!!

@libreoffice Good for you!

Eniko Fox Feb 24

@libreoffice welcome! i can tell by the replies on twitter that the people there are totally not mad and we should definitely not put in the newspaper that they got mad

@eniko @libreoffice

that «Mastodon is fascist social media» is really *chef kiss*

Eniko Fox Feb 24

@oblomov @libreoffice it is objectively extremely funny

GunChleoc Feb 24

@eniko @oblomov @libreoffice That's what you get if you think picking truth.social as your home instance is a good idea 😁

@oblomov @eniko @libreoffice I really wonder what the reasoning is. But not enough to ever go back to that site and ask

Princess Serena Star ✨Feb 24

@libreoffice enjoy my follow :3

Gary Houston Feb 24

@oblomov @libreoffice funny, although unsurprising that X users think Mastodon is too hard to use, or otherwise bad.

It's nice hanging out here with the other geniuses who can figure out how to use it.

Juffo-Wup Feb 24

@ghouston @oblomov @libreoffice

We'll, that twitter post has less replies and discussion than this post. 🤷

Otoh, the deranged replies over there are far much funnier.

@mndflayr @ghouston @libreoffice

ah, good old quality over quantity again ;-)

@ghouston @oblomov @libreoffice I do find it strange that there seems to just be this accepted wisdom that 'Mastodon is a usability nightmare'.. parroted widely, including by those who claim to love open source and have tried it. I just don't see it.
