I like how the mastodon users are still hyper-fixated on twitter for literally every post. Ive only heard news about twitter *from* mastodon users.
Its almost like they are hard coping.

@theorytoe I'm trying to drag people I know into the fedi meanwhile
-
@theorytoe @1ns0mniak @kerosene there's influencing on the fedi but it's not via being an eceleb, rather it's through organic memes. Nobody outside here will get the Alex Gleason vegan jokes.

Actually
I really like the fact that you cant become an "influencer" (friggin hate that word) it makes it so people are jist normal, and not attention seeking fags that only care about numbers.
Counter to the growing popularity of reducing things and people to mere statistics.
Its also another reason why I hung out in chatrooms more than on the more "social statitics chamber bs" type platforms. You get more interactions with normal people (although discord is no longer like that now...)

Honestly
if people stopped viewing the internet as real life
we would all be so much better off
-
@theorytoe @1ns0mniak >if people stopped viewing the internet as real life
This will forever be the most relevant post on the internet.
cyberbullying

@theorytoe Yeah, it's retarded. Bitter ass people trynna be as reactionary as possible for that victem-hood cred.
Thing is, all that get's filtered up into mass media and then into politics because everyone is too lazy to do their jobs. They think twitter is real life. I knew we were screwed when the news started putting up random tweets on air as "reporting"
-
@theorytoe I can't agree more. Imagine being that stoked to be beholden to an algorithm.
Cyberpunk is now.

@1ns0mniak
plus
all the woke garbage the algos put out honestly sickens me.
Cant believe people actually like that junk
-
@theorytoe Yeah, they just put themselves into an even bigger echo chamber than the one they had just left.
When they were posting on Mastodon, they were all talking about Twitter to each other.
They crave the attention they get from that stupid blue check, bro.

@1ns0mniak
Creatures of the machine LOL.
Ive always found the lack of an algo or verification distinct advantages of fedi.
-
@1ns0mniak
I suspected as much
I dont think much jurnos can even gain a big platform to begin with.
-
@theorytoe They've mostly gone back to Twitter at this point as I think we all suspected that they would. I was poking around some of the newer instances like journa.host or whatnot and it looks like most of the accounts haven't been posting for a few weeks.

Imagine not being aware of this dangerous serial killer. I pray for the souls of the ignorant that will not see the obvious red flag when they hear some guy shouting "MEAT BOY, MEAT BOY". We must spread awareness :cry:
