@n8 Some good ideas there,
Through the burning of fossil fuels, humans have released more carbon into the atmosphere than is contained in all of the plants currently living on Earth.
More than half of this has occurred since 1990.
We are transforming the Earth and the atmosphere on a truly massive scale.
Reforestation, and other natural solutions, will never match the scale of the problem without substantial emissions reductions.
Circles, Stories and Group Chats
These are the 3 key features I think will bring new users to Pixelfed and encourage continued engagement by embracing IRL conversational and connected experiences via these various mediums.
✨ Show off those iconic photos with everyone
✨ Send those memes to the group chat
✨ Share that moment with followers via your Story
✨ Select a circle of people to share with
Well looking for an alternative to LinkedIn perhaps @flockingbird can help put OSS projects in touch with people who can help, for either paid or unpaid work. In time as people join then we already have people posting opportunities for Post Doc research.
@flockingbird will serve people not corporate interests surely.
Thanks, this place is for everyone and everyone feels welcome.
@ariadne Before long those who are left will be accused of condoning the actions of the new owner. Could look bad on a CV / Resume if you think the way Musk has behaved towards people is acceptable
Never has one Arrogant, rich Billionaire , done so much damage to so many, so quickly. .
#RIPTwitter trending as offices closed and many refusing to sign Musk’s pledge of allegiance https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/18/riptwitter/

I have really found that, people can have intellectual discussions here, same as with science forums,
I wonder if that is actually a barrier for a lot of people, to get the most out of being here you HAVE to engage. Not that having a barrier such as that is a bad thing, if it gets people to change their mindset, it is a good thing.
@syrus @mehdihasan Engagement levels on Mastadon are also way better than Twitter
Whoo, that will sure help counter the "no one uses Mastodon" statement we get from people.
Today #Mastodon hit 7,000,000 accounts.
✨ The future is federated
Imagine being able to follow Twitter accounts from your Instagram account
With Mastodon & Pixelfed you can!
