Twitter is now begging some employees who Musk laid off to come back.

Some were apparently laid off by “mistake,” others were let go before management realized that their experience was crucial to build the new features Musk envisions. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-11-06/twitter-now-asks-some-fired-workers-to-please-come-back #tech #technology #news #media #journalist #elon #twittermi #twitterefugee

Just so new people know, #Mastodon is not normally slow!

There has been an incredible number of people joining recently, which has caused some growing pains.

As the server admins adjust to the new numbers, Masto should get back up to speed 

#introduction A Twitter veteran, I am new here and trying to figure it out.

I'm a law prof at Wageningen University in the Netherlands, interested in business and human right, academia, and metal/punk.

Die hard fan of Norwegian stonerpunk band Bokassa.

Posts are mostly in English but occasionally in French.

Another #introduction tip for new Mastodon users ( like me ):

Unlike Twitter, which shows strangers' posts in your feed once they get popular or once your friends like them, Mastodon appears to only show you posts by people you're following and posts they've boosted ( which is Mastodon-ese for RT )

So if you appreciate someone else's post and you also want your followers to see it too, you need to click those boost arrows. Just clicking the fave star won't make it visible to your followers.

Be it cars or social media, any company operating in Europe needs to comply with our rules – regardless of their shareholding.

Mr Musk knows this well.

He is familiar with European rules on automotive, and will quickly adapt to the Digital Services Act.
