There's BigPharma
There's BigAg
There's BigTech
But is there a way the say specifically #BigSocial, ie. a way to describe the #SocialMediaGiants (Facebook, Twitter and YouTube specifically) in three syllables or less?
We don't feel comfortable using a term like #BigSocial, it just doesn't have the negative connotation that is needed.
Maybe the term "#dotcons" is the one to use…
Watch this space @humanetech, @nestort, @drq et al.
@humanetech
Thanks but seven syllables is too much. Not snappy enough.
Dictionary: Not social; unconcerned with society or social matters.
Dictionary: Having or showing a lack of desire for the company of others. Not social; not adapted to society; not tending to sociability; reserved; unsociable.
#SociopathMedia
#WebOfHate
#SocialMess
#TheVanityWeb
#SocialNil
#SocialZilch
@humanetech
We like #VanityWeb, might be useful for some situations. Terms that center around #AntiSocialMedia, like UnsocialMedia are good but still too long.
Maybe #Fakebooks is more specific/better than dotcons.
The line is either, "Protect your family from the dotcons…"
or
"Protect your family from the fakebooks…"
then
1. Find a Fediverse server you like (…)"
2. …
3. …
BTW which is more understandable to the lay person, 'server' or 'instance'?
Almost forgot BigData:
"Protect yourself and your loved ones from Big Data…"
"Social (control) Media" is too long for the line.

I ❤️ "Social Control Media"

SocialNotworks is brilliant.
- Relates to social media tick,
- Pun tick,
- Censorship kinda tick,
- No ability to organise grassroots action, tick,
- General dysfunction tick,
- Only caveat is some will say, it works for me, well then thats fine we are not targetting these people.
- Other caveat is it "works" for the 0.01% bit for a different use case. But again, not targetting these.
We may have a winner.

I agree, "SocialNotworks" is great

We're delighted to report that multiple people have access to the FediFlyer design, now. We anticipate that soon it will be hosted on a couple websites.
If you'd like an early copy or can help translate into languages that are not english, drop a DM with your preferred email and we'll send you a copy. Its CC-SA-Attribution licenced, but we won't come after you with an axe for doing anything with it.
@dsfgs @humanetech @nestort @drq @witchescauldron
Is this to help promote the fediverse?, happy to host on my blog,
@dsfgs @humanetech @nestort @drq @witchescauldron
Just seen your e-mails too, thanks, flyers look great
@zleap
Good to know that you like it. The bleed is 2mm so, printers should have no trouble printing the two sides back to back.
The only difficulty might be the bright, turquoise colour. Printers tend to struggle with colours like that.
We look forward to seeing them hosted.
@dsfgs @humanetech @nestort @drq @witchescauldron
Who should I cite as the creator and link to ?
@zleap
Thanks for asking, it says DESIGN: DSFGS 'Fair Go' on the flyer so you can say CreativeCommons by DSFGS and link to our profile at activism.openworlds.info/@dsfgs
That's plenty enough. Much appreciated!
@zleap
Here are the SHA256es.
We wont be able to send for a while but expect files soon. Keep in mind we are most into Pleroma, for a number of reasons.
