what I notice about #mastodon is I am already getting a much more diverse feed thank I ever got on #twitter This must have to do with the #algorithm that twitter used. It must have been biased to where you only see tweets from really big accounts. I followed lots of people there but I only saw the same few people tweeting.Here I am following fewer people, but seeing so many more people and posts.More evidence this is a more humane place#twittermigration

I am still just so surprised at how much engagement I get on #mastodon. People are liking and sharing and commenting on my posts. So many years in #twitter and I got almost no engagement. It makes me realize how much that site wasn’t meant for regular people.#twittermigration

I logged onto #twitter. That was a mistake. This whole #hunterbiden laptop story is maddening.I agree Dems are shady and probably did work to surprise the story. But real important issues get surprised all the time. #climate #palestine #labor #railroadworkers is almost impossible to findBut we are instead being told on Twitter that we need to hear more from Nazis and racists beachside of “free speech”

The narrative #elonmusk is pushing is that he is speaking truth to power.Imagine that!The worlds richest man. Arguable one of the most powerful people in the world is trying to convince us that he is the one speaking truth to power.

@love_create I agree, the hunter Biden laptop story was suppressed. Not just at #twitter but in many mainstream media outlets.The point I am making is that what is suppressed and what is boosted on Twitter is completely an opaque process. Currently and before #elonmusk. We know Elon is currently banning and shadow blocking many left wing groups. it is a selective leak designed to make elons enemies look bad. No doubt the Bidens suck. But Elon is also a bad faith actor

@love_create Just because the bidens act in bad faith. Doesn’t mean that Elon is not engaging in the same bad faith stuff.That’s the point I am making

@love_create Yeah. Exactly. It is a good story. It’s also a distraction. Both things are true

@love_create I do think it is an important story. And I agree the media (all media not just twitter blocked it)But if Twitter is so committed to open and transparent communication. Then why don’t they just make their process for what is banned and what is promoted transparent.Because Elon is engaged in the same exact stuff he is accusing others of doing. And Elon has complete control over #twitter he is not accountable to any democratic processes.

@love_create yeah right wing media is obsessed about this story.Right wing politicians ran on the story during the mid term elections saying if elected they would use their mandate to launch investigation after investigation.It’s a story that everyone already knows.
