@DrLindseyFitzharris Thanks for sharing, very helpful article!
Michael Bang PetersenThe Mastodon political science community is scattered across multiple servers. That is fine!
However, one way to keep connected is by the use of *a group*
So, please, all political scientists, follow this group get all political science posts: @politicalscience
And tag the group to share with us all, if you want to spread messages across the entire political science community.
BUT it only works if people follow the group. So, please boost to spread the word! 🙏
@jamesbarley @mediajunkie good, I’m not the only one who was trying to figure this out!
James BarleyAnyone worked out where the GIF button is yet?
Erik MoellerExpect some of the following to happen in the coming weeks:
- celebrities with huge follower counts pushing tiny community-run servers to their knees
- instance admin burnout; shutting down of servers
- big new servers that don't "vibe" with common rules or culture being widely defederated
- some notable account violating an instance code of conduct and throwing a fit
- lots of people ragequitting Mastodon for one reason or another
- etc.
It'll be a rough ride. Patience and strength, all.
Matthew GertzThe Chinese government considering the app that provides news and information one of its “crown jewels” seems like a massive and obvious national security risk. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/interactive/2022/bytedance-tiktok-privacy-china/
The collapse of Twitter is a system breakdown. Mastodon and the fediverse represent something different: _system change_. From for-profit "Big Tech" to nonprofit, open source, community-owned public spaces.
System change is always harder than you think. It always incurs short-term costs, with hoped for long-term benefits.
The next few weeks will be really tough for the fediverse. Stick around, vibe with it, and you just might help us put a huge part of the web back in community hands. <3
