       The amount of disinformation, deep fakes, and other misdirection I hear about from friends and relatives that they get from traditional social media is insane. They have to tell me about it because I am almost always completely unaware, even though I am “on the Internet” just as much if not more than them.This is a deep advantage of using Mastodon/the Fediverse right now.  And it is not because fake stuff doesn’t exist here. It is just not automatically sent to me by every owner, bot, and user. And if it is, it is generally swatted down hard.#fediverse #mastodon #realInformation

       @chris Same. It's very much me living in a completely different world to most people I know. I have zero intention of changing my approach to social media (fedi only), but it's really disturbing.
