Certainly a regressive day for India with the Supreme Court upholding religious faith & claimed prior antiquity in deciding in favour of Ram Janmasthan. The faith of millions of Indians in the Constitution hangs in the balance as vigilante vandalism appears to have been rewarded!

Twitter emerges as a top threat to democracy in India and across the world

The case of Sanjay Hegde is a turning point, making it clear that Twitter is aligning with authoritarian regimes that target dissenters.

Welcome to all the people from India that are joining Mastodon in these days!!

#india #introductions and #followindia can be helpful hashtags to find other people just arrived here like you.

We understand that you are still unconfident with this platform, therefore here you will find some helpful tips to better understand how #Mastodon works:

- There is no such thing as "A" social network called Mastodon! Instead there are thousands of independent social networks called Mastodon Instances.
- Every Instance has his own server, community, rules, admins and moderation.
- Every Instance can interact with users that are on other Instances, exactly like email works (you can send an email from gmail to yahoo, right?).
- Every Instance can choose to silence or completely block another Instance (i.e. because permits bad behaviour)

1. Twitter seems to have ceded control of its platform to the BJP government - it is no longer @TwitterIndia, it became #Twitter4BJP.
2. Twitter shut down voices who were critical of the government on flimsy grounds based on mass reporting by RW. Did not have a human evaluate before shutting down
3. Allowed hate on platform - death/rape threats, Islamophobia & casteism giving rise to trends like
#TwitterHatesSCSTOBCMuslims #IslamophobicTwitter

Surprised to see how many people are on Mastodon. The excitement of a new platform, the shared resentment towards @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected]... quite a thing going on there. If you are not on Mastodon I suspect you will soon be.
