Mike Masnick ✅I wrote up some of the tricks and tools and tips I've picked up that have made Mastodon more useful, and which people seem to appreciate when I share with them: https://www.techdirt.com/2022/12/29/some-tricks-to-making-mastodon-way-more-useful/
Qasim Rashid, Esq.Short rant.
Southwest Air has cancelled ~70% of its flights in an epic meltdown this holiday season.
Remember, Southwest took $3.7B in federal aid from 2020-21.
It’s CEO got a pay raise to a $9.1M package in 2022.
Yet Southwest employees are working 16 hour shifts & threatened w/termination if they refuse overtime or call in sick.
Socialism for the wealthy. Capitalism for workers.
Stop trusting billionaires. Start holding them accountable. And start protecting workers.
End Rant.

winter ❄️ зимаSome of the best mastodon #advice I’ve seen over the last week is:
✅ Use #hashtags liberally - they are not #cringe but rather an important search tool for connecting given we can’t search on here
✅ Boost your fave posts, don’t just ‘like’ - esp. important for people on small instances, like me, who can’t just look at follow lists to get recommendations (only people also on your server show up)
mtswIt's pretty remarkable how much Elon's Twitter takeover is a textbook fascist takeover: leftists immediately purged, censorship regime imposed behind the scenes, secret police rooting out enemies, right wing terrorism supported by the state, etc and how uncannily similar the mainstream liberal response of pretending nothing is wrong is, even with *very low* costs of walking out the door and refusing to collaborate.
Kevin Rothrock@jimrutt @dangillmor Jim, today Musk replied to a deranged thread by Dmitry Medvedev with
"epic thread." You're being wildly optimistic if you think Musk would do anything altruistic.
