hey guys from Twitter.
we are glad to see you here but please understand that the fact that fediverse is anti-viral, anti-hierarchy and anti-capitalist is the point of it
please also understand that CWs, alt text and other stuff here is not there to "silence you" — it is to allow users greater agency over their feeds for their mental benefit, and to support disabled people.
this network was built by marginalized people. who disliked Twitter for the same reasons you do.
don't bring it back.
@FedM I managed to listen to two of his (non-)answers to Keir Starmer at his first PMQs. It was just more of the same. He’s no better than the last two. I haven’t watched PMQs regularly for years and am not going back any time soon. We need a General Election now.

Correction - I’ve knocked 10 years off my age. Like Sting, I Was Born In The 50s. Good start…
