I have no idea how to react to stuff like this. I personally had an expirience when it was proved that Mastodon is trans-friendly, isn't it?
Well, no matter how much will it make you mad (it will make you mad), looks like according to this Bluesky post below, Mastodon isn't trans-friendly.
(While the author doesn't says it directly, they are saying that Mastodon's community is racist to black transgender people.....have no words how double-stupid that is)

#PalestineCollege protest
(2/2)
...have the right to protest, that protest should be limited to public grounds. Any property owner has the right to clear his grounds of people not behaving in a constructive way.
OFC #1A, but not everywhere, neither online (->#X/#Twitter), nor in RL. According to many news reports, the students will not clear the grounds voluntarily, so the police are necessary to remove them from the premises.
Keeping people safe ist another objective.
The system previously known as FSD, now known as "just kidding FSD" is being adjusted down to $8k. In 2022 it was sold for $15k.
"Tesla CEO Elon Musk has repeatedly said that as FSD becomes more capable, it should also go up in price to reflect its greater value. Previously, FSD price increases were largely associated with software updates that added new capability to the system."
Winning!

So let me get this straight: Your business model depends on user created content for running advertisements against. Now you want to charge the people who are freely providing you with content a fee to post content without sharing any of the profit? And you are doing this because you can't figure out how to stop bots on your platform since you cut most of your engineering staff.
Hmm...I might be a business genius, but that doesn't sound like a good plan.

"People are attacked all the time in the media, online media, social media, but it is rare that that actually has a meaningful negative impact on their life," said Musk the guy with at least two bodyguards -- who follow him even into the bathroom. Said the guy who banned the kid who was running the Elon Musk flight tracker account. Really?
