@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.socialI'm going through my #Twitter archive and apparently I sent more than 70% of my tweets between 2018 and 2019 
This makes sense as I was a full time #freelance writer a the time but I still wouldn't have thought that the difference would be that stark!
Mit danske fedi-feed er faktisk mere levende, end mit danske twitter-feed nogensinde var.
Jeg skriver også mere på dansk nu, men det er ikke kun det. Det er også bare, at I er søde og kloge at snakke med.
Tak. 1/
In einem Meinungsartikel für die Zeitschrift Publik-Forum stelle ich die These auf, dass Elon Musk jeden X-Account als Munition gegen die Demokratie verwendet. X wurde zur Waffe (#weaponized).
Es ist völlig egal, was ein User auf X schreibt oder tut – die Spielregeln legt allein der Besitzer fest.

Ähnliches droht auf den #Meta-Plattformen und auch auf #Bluesky. Unterzeichnet die Petition von @neuSoM an die #HRK, damit wenigstens die Hochschulen dieses Spiel nicht mitspielen!
Als Erstunterzeichner der Petition #UnisInsFediverse von @neuSoM wurde ich gebeten, einen Meinungsartikel für die ökumenische Zeitschrift Publik-Forum verfassen.
Es ist ein Pro und Contra zur Frage »X wegen Elon Musk verlassen?« Ihr könnt euch denken, welche Position ich vertreten habe.

One year ago today, we published a letter demanding an urgent #EU security & regulatory review of #Twitter's take-over by a U.S. billionaire.
Sadly, our concerns about 'a threat to #democracy & #security' were pretty prescient :-/

@sureshtrumpet@universeodon.comIronic how shortening a product's name to one character has ultimately resulted in MORE characters being used to describe it, since everyone has to use "the app formerly known as Twitter" for anyone to know what they're actually referring to. 
17) I think this cartoon from Bruce MacKinnon captures the current state of #Twitter and #ElonMusk’s judicious approach to managing a prime #SocialMedia property
16) Yup that’s a real good look for #Twitter. So much for the virtue of #BlueCheckMarks. Now that designation has become a symbol for #disinformation
15) Meanwhile the Facebook/Meta complex has lumbered onto to the stage to take a crack at #Twitter’s microblogging empire
Nice for those who feel they can trust #Zuckerberg. I’m sure he’ll be kind to your personal data even if he’s not as erratic as #Elon
14) Another clownish misstep from #Twitter is drawing to a close. Clearly an attempt to force people to register on the site, I imagine the hope was to increase the MAUs

@heiseonline Ich hätte da noch einen tollen Vorschlag: Jeder Tweet darf am Tag auch nur 600 mal angezeigt werden…. Wir können das sicher irgendwie beschleunigen mit dem #twexit .
hey mastodon admins, BRACE FOR IMPACT!
twitter did something dumb again.
looks like twitter has now disabled the ability for people without an account to view tweets.
test it with an inkognito tab.
this is bad for indiedev and artist.
This also breaks the preview on other platforms like discord or telegram.
@CNN on it

13) Increasingly #Twitter looks like a seedy, battered, casino property. There are plenty of adds for erectile dysfunction and bongs likely encouraging mainstream advertsiers to stay away. Or might it be the bigotry encourage by #ElonMusk under the guise of #FreeSpeech?
The #NYT is out with a story based on an internal presentation from Twitter showing a 59% decline in YOY ad revenues for April.
All is clearly not well

/2 Day 179 some #Twitter users are attempting to sabotage the #ElonMusk’s #BlueCheck program. A lot of users not happy, trying to bend #Musk to their will rather than leave and migrate to #Mastodon
What does it take?

Since #Twitter API access will cost a fee from the 9th of February on, best delete your old Tweets now before the tools might go down due to lack of funds, or because they don't want to give the Musk any money.
