  • @tchambers@indieweb.social @WillRobinson@indieweb.social good advice in here. we can't allow ourselves to become dependent on tech oligarchs again two notes: on not recommending "leave all big tech", i'd argue, leave as much as you can. there is NO reason to be on ex-twitter, threads, instagram, or whatsapp. there are excellent alternatives to all of them it's reported that bluesky got up to some shenanigans w/ Indivisible's account during No kings. i recommend mastodon to those i talk to 💙

    @tchambers@indieweb.social @WillRobinson@indieweb.social #bluesky and #substack are better but not good enough. they provide exits but are somewhat unproven and take time to implement. we have to take this message to people with serious reach on the left. the forkiverse experiment but bigger and with more of a sense that it's essential for democracy. America always had shitty people but it wasn't till algo media that acting this way could make you famous and wealthy and influential. then that influenced culture and civics.

    @tchambers@indieweb.social @WillRobinson@indieweb.social real good practical advice here. Mike Masnick had a good thread on how this might really be an accident and some of the history why Meta is setup this way but ultimately it's our responsibility to make sure we have comms channels that work
