My team at work just launched new research on the #TwitterMigration: We analyze which platforms are growing - especially #Mastodon, #Tumblr & #Post.

We look at which sites users are adding to their Twitter bios, posting to their friends about & downloading apps for.

Please do boost this, and love to hear any comments or feedback on it!

@enbrown like he just assumed that old twitter must have been operating in bad faith, but here he is living their reality. Like you said: moderation is complicated and it's impossible to get it consistent and a lot of situations just don't even have a right answer at all

The Bad Website is rapidly also becoming The Nazi Website

been seeing a lot of hype and fundraising around #ProjectMushroom and was pretty disappointed to see this.

How can you say you're "safe for work" then say "sex work is work" then say "no nudes"

Please let 🐦DeanBaker13 back on Twitter so we can explain to him why he is completely wrong about Section 230 ;-)

QT ceprdc: We are concerned about today's sudden and disturbing temporary suspension of CEPR Senior Economist Dean Baker’s Twitter account.

Hear from 🐦DeanBaker13 on what happened, and read CEPR's statement on the increasing trend of banning accounts that criticize the company’s new owner.

Everyone knew Ye would reoffend & shouldn't get his Twitter account back. But the Star of David/swastika image that got him resuspended isn't ILLEGAL "incitement to violence." It's not even close. Despite his free speech ambitions, Musk chose to remove lawful-but-awful content

To be clear, this does not mean “no content moderation.” At all. That would be a disaster. It means content moderation should happen at the platform level (think: Facebook, mastodon, discord, Twitter) not at the infrastructure level (think: Comcast, cloudflare, PayPal, Tucows)

NEW: @eff @team dozens of global human rights groups have signed on to #ProtectTheStack, urging infrastructure level entities like payment processors, app stores, ISPs, and CDNs to uphold free expression and avoid content specific censorship https://protectthestack.org

@freemo she said it all at the end: "...and I don't need someone like you on my wiki. Goodbye." Yes, 'her' wiki. One person's opinion should not be used represent the entire fediverse (as she so fondly thinks it, apparently). This goes for the CEO, as well.

Hoping the #ufoi becomes the standard to which everyone looks for in an instance before signing up. I see a lot of potential in this fediverse stuff and we don't need the few dictating how the majority should feel.

A woman was arrested for "chemical endangerment" for using drugs while pregnant. The problem: She wasn't pregnant. So officers released her, but told her if she gets pregnant in the next few month she will be re-arrested.

The people who told us we were overreacting when Roe was overturned were never arguing in good faith and also they were very wrong.

@Amikke It is often the case that the loudest people are the most toxic.
