A look at one of the most pressing problems of 2023: the lament that "the left" wouldn't be friends with "the right," over "political views."

Ich bin ja der Meinung, dass Mastodon und die anderen Fediverse - Tools für uns kleine lokalen Betriebe in Zukunft konkurrenzlos sein wird.

Warum?
Weil es hier die Möglichkeit gibt, lokale Instanzen aufzusetzen, über die man sich der Ort mit seinen Vereinen, der Verwaltung, der Kultur und dem Gewerbe zeigen kann.
Das bietet sonst keine einzige Plattform.

Die Instanz eurer Landesregierung ist dazu ein richtig guter Anfang, also @social.schleswig-holstein.de

Moin!
Wir sind die Carl-von-Ossietzky-Buchhandlung aus Flensburg — und ab sofort auch hier mit Mastodon.
Warum? Weil sich immer mehr zeigt, wohin die Nutzung der sogenannten „sozialen“ Medien führt und wir nicht mehr Teil davon sein wollen.

I don't hear the supposed "free speech" warriors on the right saying a *peep* about this. Almost as if free speech wasn't ever the point...

‘Chilling effect on free speech:’ Trump wants green card applicants already legally in the US to hand over social media profiles

USCIS said the vetting of social media accounts is necessary for “the enhanced identity verification, vetting and national security screening.” Critics say it crushes free speech

-= We hoped we never had to do this but here we are and we now have to do this. =-

American trans humans are under threat and like in 1930s Germany, they now have to GTFO of their home country.

We have decided we need to collect some information on the possible ways out.

So we made a wiki.

We are collecting information on possible exit routes into various countries. We focus on work, study and self employment visas as they are available at the moment.
