Chris TrottierOther people have seen this, but I'm adding more alt text.
Taylor Lorenz demonstrates that no one can trust Twitter's metrics.
She posted from a private account with no followers. Nevertheless, she got "views".
Twitter isn't the only social media company that fakes views. Meta does the same with videos.
The truth is that view counts exist not to give you truthful data, but to incentivize your continued posting.
Don't be fooled by these so-called "view counts"!
Scott ShapiroFor my account at least, Mastodon does these numbers right now but Twitter does not.
Dan GillmorMusk and his minions have reinstated the account of one of the nation's most prominent bigots. This is not remotely surprising to anyone who's paying the slightest attention.
I remain surprised, and disappointed, that so many people in the journalism world still choose to use that platform -- knowing that they are supporting people who want to see the U.S. become a right-wing dictatorship.
Journalism has options, but most journalists ignore them.
The Press are noticing that former Twitter developers are migrating to Mastodon.
What should raise eyebrows is: Ivory might be "better than Tweetbot ever could be".
This isn't mere hype.
Tweetbot was rolled out in 2011, when Twitter clients were already constrained by API limitations.
However, with Mastodon, Tapbots isn't constrained whatsoever by a proprietary API.
With open protocols, the sky is the limit in how they can innovate!
Twitter ain't limiting them!

🚨BIG NEWS🚨
Buffer just added Mastodon as one of its supported social networks!
Amongst social media professionals this is HUGE!
See screenshots!
Prof. Sam LawlerJust over 3 years ago, I moved to a farm where I can see the Milky Way from my back door. Despite being an astronomer, I've never had that kind of personal access to a dark sky before, and it totally changed my relationship with the sky.
I have always loved looking at the stars, but now I also feel a shared ownership of this natural resource with all of humanity, past, present, and future. This is my sky! Our sky! Our human history!

This is the push I need to finally stop posting daily thoughts here, I think. I might occasionally retweet/promote my work, but otherwise you can find me on the Mastodon in my profile and on Ars.
It’s been a lot of fun until about a month ago https://twitter.com/waxy/status/1603573131024769025

Danica Niki RadisicAccording to #Brazilian media, "newly appointed Minister of Defense, José Mucio Monteiro, has ordered the country's Army command to immediately locate and dismantle all coup plotters encampments nationwide."
Also, most media in Brazil flat out calling the coup plotters "terrorists."
