Senator @Paulatics Paula Simons rose today in Question Period in Canada’s Senate to ask the government why (the hell! - my words lol) Government is still using that platform of hate, misogyny and Russian misinformation called X!?
Boost to support the Senator!! And ask your MP, MLA, or other government representative wherever you are to do the same!!

☝️THIS 🧵☝️ is exactly why I do not trust #BlueSky . This recent push of so many accounts joining at once and the INorganic feel of the movement, combined with the #MAGA money funding the platform and the #Crypto scammer who owns it...
It all just adds up to trouble down the road-- for all of us, on or off of BS
BlueSky's MAGA owners are making it seem like a "safe space" for Liberals now, but I am dead certain the plan is to use it to spread political disunity and disinformation down the road.
I am especially worried abt disunity beginning there & working its way across #SocialMedia . Republicans and MAGA only win when we do not unify and vote together. It's how they won in 2016, how they won this year, & how they plan to win in the future.
Trump did not make huge gains between 2020 & 2024. The problem was a lack of unity behind Harris.
If they can sow enough discontent on the Liberal side, then MAGA can walk in the door unchallenged.
I feel the fact that #Bluesky is connected to Steve Bannon and Russian state media and cryptobros should be bigger news.
But it's not.
If you search "Bluesky" using a search engine like DuckDuckGo, you'll come across results like "Here's What To Know About Bluesky" (NBC) or "X users jump to Bluesky - but what is it and who owns it" (BBC). One would think the aforementioned connections would be relevant info in a piece like that.
The omission is glaring.

Bluesky wants to introduce a paid subscription
The Bluesky microblogging platform has grown significantly over the last year, from 2 million users last November to more than...Filipe Espósito (9to5Mac)
“Since Elon Musk took over, the platform has increasingly merged with his own and Donald Trump's political ambitions, while the climate on X has become more harsh and extreme. Therefore, we will not publish anything there from our official accounts”, says editor-in-chief Peter Wolodarski.

You all, this is the clearest and most accurate explanation on how to move from twitter to #Mastodon that I have seen in a while.👌

If you're looking for a simplified guide to turbo-charge people to move away from Twitter/X and join #Mastodon, this is a really good one from @steveroyle : quantixed.org/2024/08/14/exodu…Exodus: moving to Mastodon
I jumped ship from Twitter following the Musk takeover in 2022. Seeking an alternative, I joined Mastodon and didn’t look back. Since then, I’ve enjoyed many wonderful interactions and conversations; and I feel a bit sad at what Twitter turned into.Stephen Royle (quantixed.org)
The week is over, here are some charts:
For two weeks in a row, #Mastodon brought more #traffic than #X / #Twitter to heise.de.
But I forgot, that's not just via @heiseonline, but also @heisec, @ct_Magazin, @heiseautos, @iX_Magazin etc. (but for Twitter its the same).
#Bluesky is way behind, #Threads even more. Only Twitter is clearly falling.

I don't know if this horrible
news might bring more people to Mastodon today,
But if you are new here and feel lost,
I wrote this little guide you might find helpful 💚👇

Exactly two years ago, we started to post links on #Mastodon via our account @heiseonline 👇
mastodon.social/@heiseonline/1…
It took longer, than I expected, but here we are: it seems like this account now brings continuously more #traffic to heise.de than #X (#Twitter) in its entirety, although it only has ¼ of the follower number (and many of them don't seem to be active anymore).
I'll prepare some graphs after the weekend.
