in reply to Electronic Frontier Foundation • • •may i suggest that anything you post on nepo-fascist David Ellison's platform TikTok, you also post to #Loops
we should be growing & starting the migration to better platforms
(better socially, at least. where are the good💙angel investors?)

Seems relevant.

When I get an amber or silver alert from my police department on my phone I shouldn't get a pop up that covers the information as soon as the page loads. I shouldn't need an x.com account to read the information in the comments.

I never understood why you guys stayed at the nazi bar so long after it was apparent to everyone that it was a nazi bar... but better late than never.

in reply to Electronic Frontier Foundation • • •so what changed your minds?
It wasn’t when Elon bought and made deadnaming people allowed, which is when a lot of us left.
It wasn’t the Salute, or the promotion of far right candidates around the world.
It wasn’t the dog whistle myths like white genocide in South Africa.
It wasn’t the AI sexual harassment, or CSAM.
So what WAS the final straw?
Oh! You weren’t getting enough traffic. Such a commendable moral stand.

in reply to Electronic Frontier Foundation • • •lol, imagine trying to actually educate Facebook and Tiktok users instead of radicalising them or making them addicted to dog s**t content, that's simply not what those platforms are designed for 😋
Not to say that the entire fediverse is an ideal place either.

in reply to Electronic Frontier Foundation • • •"might"? Save yourselves the long explanation when "duh" suffices. It's been unethical to be on there for nearly half a decade. Saying sorry would be more apt.

It tells you that this is the correct decision.

That's why I never joined that cesspool of a platform to begin with!
