My personal request: if you see a headline that makes you feel a strong emotion, you should think about whether it’s actual for at least 20 seconds before boosting or typing out your opinion

Yes I’m subposting several things right now. It turns out plenty of people have retained alarmist Twitter user behaviour over here too

@misty i see a lottt of misinformation passing through these parts, and i often wonder how the dynamic of the fediverse ~feeling~ small and trustworthy contributes to that…

@brhfl Yeah, I do feel like there's also the angle where people feel self-congratulatory about being in a different environment than twitter that makes people paradoxically less likely to *actually* take care about spreading misinfo, since you’ve already put in the effort by being here?
