If they're smaller creators or fan friendly, maybe someone could reach out to them to help get them set up? More audience for them is good, and if they think they'll get value out of being here they'll create accounts.
It's actually a major, and documented, problem. Despite everyone born after 1995 being considered a digital native, more and more people don't have any technical aptitude and are wholly reliant on digital support
If we can do that here, surely it can't be that hard to just pick a server on there and follow people, right?
I don't expect everyone to be a coding wizard, I'm certainly not, but how are so many people still so tech illiterate in this modern day that what essentially boils down to picking an email host is considered difficult??
My issue is thereās just not enough content yet. I mostly only used Twitter to engage with wrestling fans (for better or worse), but on Mastodon there seems to be less than 10 wrestling fans total.
I bet the ten of you could make a community worth joining. That's a time commitment though. Could just 9ost stuff from reddit for now to build the community.
If they admit its not that complicated then they have no excuse for not switching and have to accept that theyāre perfectly happy suckling on the poisoned teat of these platforms and donāt actually want to leave
Even attributing the most evil intentions to Musk & Zuck (not hard to imagine), the Zuck still has some incentive in not completely shitting all over the EU and the GDPR, as well as this year's new laws regulating large social media platforms.
Whereas Musk seems to just... not care. I don't think he expects Twitter to survive until the lawsuits go through and is just radicalizing as many people as possible.
I'm not going to open a Threads account, but people that I follow on mastodon are saying that Threads is protecting hate groups like libs of tik tok, and moms for liberty by auto-closing reports against those accounts within 2-3 minutes of them being reported.
While I do agree with that, I donāt think thatās relevant in this case. Most people donāt even know mark is Jewish. Hell I didnāt know that until last week or so. I believe the joke here is that Mark just behaves like an alien pretending to be human. Hence the lizard people conspiracy meme.
Fair, maybe Iām just being a bit over cautious here as Iāve noticed a huge rise in antisemitism over the past year or so and would rather err on the side of not risking coming off as such
