Dan GillmorStory in 3 parts, in which @paulg praises (in good faith) someone who's actually a con man; realizes he's been conned, and says so; and is cast out by the con man.

I’m just gonna leave this here.
Dwight SilvermanOh this is too good. Since Twitter is now blocking Mastodon links, someone has created a link shortener to hide them. Gotta love the URL:
Space Karen Sucks
Free speech really should be free. To bypass the new censorship regime at twitter, use this URL shortener to link to Mastodon or other censored destinations. Considering recent policy decisions on twitter, please be aware that use of links generated from this site may constitute a violation of their policy.
Randahl FinkSaturday evening, Washington Post columnist @taylorlorenz revealed to Elon Musk, she was writing a story and had questions about his banning of journalists on Twitter. Her account was then immediately banned from Twitter too.
Now, a few hours later her new account on Mastodon has grown to over 100,000 followers, and sadly for Elon Musk, he cannot buy Mastodon as it is financed by it's users.
Tell everyone you know to join Mastodon.

Mason, reluctant americanI'm constantly surprised at the number of people who are looking for lists of people to follow. There's no shortage of fascinating breadcrumb trails here.
Pick a toot that resonates with you and open it up. See who commented, or retooted it. Look at those people's profiles. Follow them.
Look at their older toots and follow the people whose comments on those toots pique your interest.
I've been here a month & have a global circle, not one of whom I knew before coming here. #IFollowTheCrumbs

Chris TrottierPeople need to know that the Fediverse's engagement is like 100x more impactful than Twitter's engagement.
But instead, there's this weird perception that there's no reach here.
Ha!
Don't be fooled by Fediverse follower counts. Just don't.
