right wing accounts are learning that they're nothing without constant rage bait interactions.

Moreover, Bluesky already feels a bit like how social media would look if a non-TERF version of the Guardian was running it. It’s very liberal, very centrist, and very ‘don’t rock the boat too much’.

We’ll be keeping an eye on this, and for the moment we’ll be posting to both Twitter and Bluesky. We look forward to engaging with you wherever you end up.

"we're not ready to choose between the cop bar and the Nazi bar, so for now we'll keep hanging out in both."

Of course they don't mention fediverse as an option. Of course.

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

I thought they were the same bar

we've become this tech illiterate to not understand the possibility of mastodon being a option.

Does this belong in technology?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 30 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Okay man, we get it. You like Bluesky. You've posted at least 10 articles of people moving from X to Bluesky.

[–] Scolding7300@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Articles about this will continue to be posted until moral improves

Strong shill op for blue sky is underway no doubt, i can't tell if it is organic since they are getting large user inflows or jay graber is funding these endless fake news headlines.

we will never know... but we do know that corpos love them shill ops to gain market share.

[–] Juice260@lemmy.world 8 points 20 hours ago (4 children)

Why do so many people think they MUST be heard? 😆 That’s one of the reasons I deleted Reddit. Too many weirdos thinking that I owed them a debate or something whenever I commented something they disagreed with. It happened on Twitter too but I got rid of that when musk announced that he was going through with the purchase.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 34 minutes ago

because so much of conservative thought is about having captive audiences; look at how much they try to whine when they get protested at a school campus.

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Ideally everyone would be able to set up rules as to who and what they see.

Something like (pseudo syntax initially like SQL, but went off track):

IF sum(this.poster.posts.karma) < -100 OR this.score < -10 OR sum(this.poster.opinions.rating WHERE this.poster.opinions.source IN me.friends) < 0 THEN false ELSE true END.

If you're proposing that front end devs literally provide an optional field for those with the time and motivation to curate their feed programmatically with some kind of query language, that's god damn brilliant, and would persuade me to use an otherwise feature–lacking but decently polished client over any other.

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Yes.

I'd also want a standard, so that it wouldn't be monopolized into one bigger platform, like with GMail.

And probably servers should have some kind of zero-knowledge protection, so that such a client-side filter would be the only one applied to the information. Maybe with ability to subscribe to filters published by someone else, of course, or kill lists, but always preserving transparency and choice.

EDIT:

I think NOSTR is kinda similar, only it has public keys as identities, just so. In general its cryptographic mechanisms are used as intended, but in a very ancient way. It's too simplistic.

New Freenet (Locutus), I think, is going to be a platform where one can make such an application and a thousand others.

[–] yetAnotherUser@lemmy.ca 3 points 16 hours ago

I DISAGREE with you. YOU ARE NOW OBLIGATED TO ENTER AN EPIC DEBATE TO THE DEATH WITH ME BECAUSE REACHING A CONSENSUS IS IMPOSSIBLE IN THE INTERET!!!!!!!!

(((((((((((((((((/s (in case it wasn't obvious))))))))))))))))))

[–] psychothumbs@lemmy.world -3 points 20 hours ago

The reason people post on these sites is to make themselves heard I guess. You just have to ignore or block your way into the level of interaction you're comfortable with.

[–] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

just say X-odus

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

do terfs support maternity leave?

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 21 hours ago

Probably for themselves only.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world -4 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Can we stop using the term "TERF"? It doesn't mean anything at this point. The transphobic assholes on X certainly aren't radical feminists.

[–] 3dogsinatrenchcoat@slrpnk.net 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

The issue with the term is that radical feminism is transphobic by definition so why specify "trans exclusionary"

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Excluding trans folk is what makes these specific feminists radical. Their beliefs, otherwise, are fairly mainstream feminist.

[–] 3dogsinatrenchcoat@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 hour ago

The core idea of radical feminism is that humanity is divided into two groups - male (ontologically evil, sexual predators from birth) and female (weak, incapable of harm, in need of protecting) while some radical feminists define these groups as being based in assigned sex, and others define them by gender identity, it's the ideology as a whole that is transphobic, and harmful in many other ways It is far from typical feminist beliefs. Thty advocate for things such as female seperatism, and killing all those they consider men or culling them to a small population to be kept only for breeding.

[–] LuckingFurker@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 1 day ago (4 children)

We need to make FARTs - Feminism Appropriating Reactionary Transphobes - stick instead

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 18 minutes ago

i prefer to call them divorced losers whose children hate them

[–] GuyDudeman@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

OMG I have to use that.

[–] VerticaGG@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago

I'd like to call em that, but this has changed my mind.

A "feminist" that claims to support gender equality, but thinks trans folk should diaf.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 7 points 22 hours ago

Trans Excluding Radical Feminist. It's a rabbit hole and it's not much fun past the first 100 meters.
