It’s great to see mastodon showing up meaningfully for things like the Texas Observer, but it seems—from my subjective POV—super uneven. Making a really strong case for the best parts of, for example, bookworld/literary twitter to put down stronger roots here is going to take active support and community-building, especially when most journalists are still not active here (and are frequently reviled for being journalists at all).

Right now, a lot of fedi advocates are asking authors and artists to leave the social media sites that have allowed them to get by, but without doing much/anything to support those newcomers once they arrive here—even leaving aside the old-guard pushback against “self promotion.”And idk, “staying on twitter for your work makes you the object of my disgust,” is maybe not the persuasive tool a lot of people here seem to believe it is. 🤷🏻

@kissane@blaine Only for spineless fools - [the proverbial] you must do what's best and works for you, and to hell with #miscreants shaming you... Just block them forever. They're not your friends and they never will be and they've proven their insignificance with threats.I'm a big fan of #Elon - he's a great guy, but I still want #Twitter to die. Disenfranchising hard working people from their market is not the way and pressuring them to do so is pure #evil.https://Pixelfed.art ⛵

@FuckElon@tallship > Please tell me what makes him a great guy. No let's keep playing this guessing game instead! 🤘🤡🤘I've got forever for you to get something right, lolz!> (1) So upset his daughter is trans that he decided to go after universities and "wokeism".Nope! That's not one, lolz. But you are right about wokeism being diabolical.> (2)Killed several public transportation projects...Maybe, which ones? You gotta list? Otherwise, keep guessing 🙂> (3) Pumped and dump schemes.Oh those were fun! But no, getting warmer though...(4) Right wing promotion fascism promotionNot sure what you're talking about - but he did see the light, didn't he? Smart guy he is! Except... He dismantled and exposed the fascism you seem to be so keen on defending. Are you yourself a fascist, or are you perhaps a fascist sympathizer? You've certainly got a lot of hate inside of you, and that's not really healthy.> (5) Just reinstated the Kremilin and Russian propaganda accountsPartly - buying Twitter certainly is one good thing, and people should be able to decide for themselves the propaganda they wish to read - like... yours right here in the post I'm responding to. Nobody censored you, and that's a good thing, even though you seem to me like the kind of person would do so to others - which you should know, if you don't already, is an evil thing.> There is much more, of courseBy all means, keep guessing! This game is fun. But you're not very good at it.#Elon_rocks #whiney_haters #self_loathing_bigots #fun_guessing_games⛵.
