In general I think we can just say micro blogging platforms are toxic. You hear this of Twitter, Bluesky, and mastodon.
I don’t think it’s fair to write off the entire medium like that. They all share a common ancestor in Twitter and I think it’s fair to say the toxicity is inherited from there.
wow, this Aurynn is an arrogant insufferable prick.
Worth noting, they have since publicly apologized
Okay, i did not know. That makes things indeed a bit better.
Nah, fuck that. If you’re not paying me for the data you’re harvesting from me, with or without intent to monetize it, I’m going DEFCON 1, dumping the mag, and emptying the silos. I am not accepting that Zuckerbergian shit out of anybody, I don’t care who they claim to be to me or what they claim to do. Too many capitalist pigs try too hard to put their trotters on my data for me to not anymore.
Damn. Poor guy! He didn’t deserve any of that. I hope this whole shit show results in positive changes and better documentation, but I don’t have high hopes, unfortunately. I hope Sascha is doing okay. Thank you for sharing this great article here!
Ahh Mastodon strikes again. I’m actually grateful that BlueSky opened up, it’s a much better experience imo.
EDIT: You can downvote me all you want, but it won’t change the fact that I like BlueSky more than Mastodon. lol
Disagreeing doesn’t mean you should get downvoted. I disagree with your sentiment but upvote.
… For now
