This happened just 6 hours ago. For the very first time in the history of #Mastodon 600 000 new users/week decided to registered for a social network platform that's not driven by algorithms.

And I think that's beautiful! 🙏

Remarkable how many "genius billionaires" turn out to be frauds:

Elizabeth Holmes (Theranos)

Adam Neumann (WeWork)

Sam Bankman-Fried (FTX)

@Tinu This is so important and so clearly explained.

I think it's also important to point out that if white people don't make space for all types of marginalised voices, *we* (white people) are the ones missing out. We just go on living in ignorance of what is really the majority, collectively, of human experience, knowledge, culture, history and everything else. I've never understood the appeal of this.

Decided to look at network stats again. There are 1M more people using #Mastodon today than there were on October 27.

#introduction Set up an account here to migrate over time, as I’m still monitoring the Hellsite & watching it burn down in spectacular fashion.

Some interests: #politics #movies #writing #art #photography #fitness #animals #comedy

Looking forward to making new connections!

In self parody news, just found myself explaining the difference between the Roman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire to a bored man in a pub.

The mid-2000s called, it wants its meme accusation based on anecdotal evidence back.

The docs for changing #servers are not great, but it's pretty easy. Here are the steps:
1. Sign up for an account on the new server
2. While you wait for it, under preferences/export, export your list of people you follow to a csv file
3. In the new account, dad your avatar, description, etc
4. In the new account, go to Preferences/Account/"Move *from* a different server" and follow the steps
4. In the old account, go to Preferences/Account/"Move *to* a different server" and follow the steps.

The fash made a MASSIVE mistake this year, and it cost them an election rigged for them to dominate.

The question is, who wins the fight from the fallout?

I honestly think it's better for folks who don't like fascism, if the Christian Nationalists win - because they will lose to even bog standard liberalism.

The other version of fascism, Bannonism if you will; is 2-0 vs liberalism and I see no signs of that changing at all.

#introduction
This is my first introduction toot since joining. Hello everyone! I am Karl Heidtbrink a Software Engineer who has been in the field since I graduated from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology with a B.S. in Software Engineering back in 2012. Primarily use C#/VisualBasic/SQL as #programming / #scriptinglanguages in work today.

Arron Dominion is my online persona, as I work on #mods for #games in my free time when I have the mental energy for it to help keep my creative side in a good place. #Skyrim #StarTrekEliteForce #Morrowind are some of the games I have created mods for. Have used C# before to create some modding utilities, but nothing major. Also #write for fun or with the modding hobby, nothing really published to show. That is what I chose for joining here.

#Mastodon is new to me for a social media platform in comparison to Twitter and some of the others out there currently. Seems like it is the popular platform to flock to, and looking forward to learning more about it, and learning about the community.

@yes Being a nazi means having an anime avatar and liking pre-2014 video games. The more you like that stuff the more nazi you are.

Meanwhile, somewhere on the #fediverse, a #twitterrefugee is complaining about shitposters' posts to the shitposting admins with the same "its not enough for me to block them if other people still see it" attitude they brought with them from #twitter.
Leave it on the birdsite birdbrains.

It's always kind of disturbing to be part of something for years and then be discovered by the mainstream who assumes the thing had only just begun at that moment of discovery and rewrites history to be around a single piece of software, service or personality instead of the whole team effort that took years to develop across multiple different systems, protocols, and communities.

It's a good lesson in asking questions and not just immediately accepting what you are told as the simple reality of things.
