You've been trained, for a very long time, to digest the output of algorithms intended to exploit you.

It feeds addiction.

There is none of that here.

The emotions you are feeling about leaving Twitter are exploitation leaving hypothalamus.

Stick with it, you are almost there.

Here's a part of the Espionage Act I noticed this morning bc what else does one do on a Sunday morning but read the Espionage Act.

It requires those convicted to give the documents in question back.

Not a surprise, but of note give that DOJ believes Trump has NOT given the docs back.

So far, while a new journalist-specific mastodon instance has been created and is beginning to take off, none of the Congressional journalists that we rely on has shown up there (as of yesterday when last we looked). So, we’ll periodically be telling you about things we’ve learned on The Other Site, but we’re going to avoid just sending users there on the assumption that you’re here because you don’t want to go there. Whew. Enough prologue.

Joyce,
So delighted to see you here in the new neighborhood.
I wrote a post about my migration. My top advice:
1. Switch to light mode. Makes a huge difference.
2. Select. the advanced web interface in settings. It's like Tweetdeck; much better view of everything.

If you're a Twitter migrant looking to rebuild your feed:

1) Consider using Debirdify to search your follows / followers for Mastodon info: https://pruvisto.org/debirdify/

2) Update your Twitter bio so others can find you with apps like Debirdify: https://twitter.com/MaxKennerly/status/1589043138617692162

3) Explore journa.host, which has lots of familiar Twitter folks: https://journa.host/explore
