Logging on to Mastodon… I think I will read six hundred posts today. Perhaps I shall even indulge myself and read six hundred and one
Twitter, once the most powerful real-time information system ever built, so much so someone accidentally live tweeted the death of bin Laden, now not only can’t be used to save lives from bad weather, but won’t even let the existence of bad weather be seen by the weather people.
Jack Dorsey enthusiastically co-signed the deal that betrayed 200 million Twitter users and handed their accounts over to a fucking right wing egomaniacal billionaire. You’ll have to excuse me if I’m not eager to sign up for another one of this dude’s schemes.

It was the decade of knowing that something will be abused at scale while refusing to acknowledge the responsibility that comes with running services at that scale, because actually doing proper enforcement and abuse handling would cut into the profits too much.

Just claim that you're a neutral platform, that you're working on machine learning that will fix it, or go whole hog on free speech absolutism while quietly terminating anything and anyone that might cause you legal trouble.

Amazon, Twitter, Facebook, Cloudflare; the list is long.

@x0darkpadr3 since discovering #bloomscrolling, I imagine Masty surrounded by many blooms.

@x0darkpadr3 that second one kinda looks like it's based on obama's presidential portrait

i like it

@x0darkpadr3 idk. I came back from boredom just to be reminded there is no drama here, no mean jokes, and no celebrities. which are like the main reason for being on twitter
@x0darkpadr3 the mastodon pic is so cute
@x0darkpadr3 probably needs to be updated with more fire and hotter flames. :)
@x0darkpadr3

@Kjaerulv

@ami @Kjaerulv

I’m happy to attribute it to the original author if you know who it is…

@x0darkpadr3
Sadly, my recollection of the original artist also fell off again 🤷
@Kjaerulv
@x0darkpadr3 META is missing in this picture x3
Maybe a "This is way to fine!"-Suckerberg looking Robot that tries to sneak up on the Mastodon from behind x3
