I assume that people with those attitudes “miss what Twitter used to be.”
Miss me with that shit, Twitter was always a shithole and Jack Dorsey was always a Nazi-protecting piece of shit.
Zuck and Meta ain’t no better.
who the dick would want to see Threads posts
Lots of illustrators and writers have Threads and Instagram because it’s where the money is. They rely on that kind of exposure to sell and show their work. Following from Mastodon without a Threads account would be awesome.
Not to mention that many Mastodon users are ridiculously “purists” saying that no ad or sell should be on the network, ever, and are actively hostile to the small guys trying to make a living here. I agreed that big corps can fuck off because they overdo ads, but the small guy selling his weird contraptions or custom phone cases should see Mastodon as an alternative. But the truth is that they won’t.
I don’t quite understand what is happening, but I switched to another instance just in case. For anyone that is okay with this, could you please enlighten me? I’d really like to know. Thanks in advance!
