> Twitter might have had a reputation as a left-leaning workforce, but there had always been a faction that disapproved of its progressive ideals. On Slack, some of these workers had formed a channel called #i-dissent, where they asked questions like why deadnaming a trans colleague was considered “bad.” When Musk announced he was buying the company, one of the more active i-­dissenters was thrilled. “Elon’s my new boss and I’m stoked!” he wrote on Linked­In. “I decided to send him a slack message. I figured you miss 100% of the shots you don’t make 😅 🚀 🌕”

> This employee was cut during the first round of layoffs. Soon, all the prominent members of the #i-dissent Slack channel would be gone. The channel itself was archived, while bigger social channels like #social-watercooler were abandoned.

Fortunately I have books to keep me occupied. #I'mReading The Lady's Triumph by Shelley Adina, the third in an alternate-Regency trilogy in which two awesomely clever women attempt to thwart Napoleon's invasion of England with gadgets and airships, while fighting societal expectations and falling in love, though sadly not with each other.

@gtbarry When the #FBI says "y'all should use an #AdBlocker", you know it's bad.

Here is the direct link to the #FBI #PSA Cyber Criminals Impersonating Brands Using Search Engine Advertisement Services to Defraud Users

The FBI recommends individuals take the following precautions:

Before clicking on an advertisement, check the URL to make sure the site is authentic. A malicious domain name may be similar to the intended URL but with typos or a misplaced letter.
Rather than search for a business or financial institution, type the business’s URL into an internet browser’s address bar to access the official website directly.
Use an ad blocking extension when performing internet searches. Most internet browsers allow a user to add extensions, including extensions that block advertisements. These ad blockers can be turned on and off within a browser to permit advertisements on certain websites while blocking advertisements on others.

The FBI recommends businesses take the following precautions:

Use domain protection services to notify businesses when similar domains are registered to prevent domain spoofing.
Educate users about spoofed websites and the importance of confirming destination URLs are correct.
Educate users about where to find legitimate downloads for programs provided by the business.

I remember someone else already posted this article, but I can't find it because I didn't bookmark the Toot.
Tech Journalism Doesn’t Know What to Do With Mastodon
The articles talks about how Mastodon isn't "a company" and was designed with a different set of values than a commercial, capitalist venture.
It doesn't really touch on the very real differences in how the platform works that make it more difficult out-of-the-box to navigate.

If I were advising a journalist on how to get their stories visible on Mastodon, I'd say two things:

Hashtag the shit out of your content
Get as much content as you can into a single Toot

It's not "easy" to find what you want on Mastodon. The system doesn't have an algorithm to learn what gets the most clicks from you. It won't promote toots or people.
You have to curate your own list of users to follow (or block), hashtags to follow, and filters to set. And you cannot do that without exploring the content. There isn't a pre-filled list someone can give you that will be exactly what you want or need.

Mastodon also seems less friendly when trying to read content that is broken up among multiple Toots. When I see 1/20 or whatever, I generally skip it, because I don't have a simple way to view the entire thing as a single thread.
I suppose you can reply to your own Toots to keep them grouped but, if others are replying, as well, that might get noisy and messy.

I have to keep Mastodon up all day long or I risk missing breaking news.
Looking for anything more than 12 hours old that doesn't have a good hashtag is often impossible.
I know I saw jokes about people saying something like

#I #guess #I #should #write #all #my #toots #like #this.
And that's honestly not a bad idea if every word is something that someone might want to search for.

I know #TheAlgorithmIsPeople but it's so easy for meaningful Toots to get buried.

Some people decry the absence of Quote-Tooting, but what would that be used for that Boosting and Replying does not already accomplish? Quote-Tooting would elevate your commentary of perhaps something as insightful as "This!" to the same level of the original Toot and it breaks the conversational flow.

@thomas I love TTRPGs with world-building in them. Some do this on the fly and others do it procedurally in setting up the game.

Games like #Fate, #CortexPrime, and others let you spend resources and make things real, including setting elements.

Games like #TheQuietYear, #Dialect, and #ForTheQueen have you build/change as you go in the rules. #Epyllion asks you to detail the world using a map and I love it.

Games like #Microscope and #I'mSorryDidYouSayStreetMagic are about world-building.

You’d never see your week-old post still being boosted on the bird site. There may not be an algorithm here, but there is some sort of magic going on.

@aeonofdiscord #yes, #I #hate #hashtags #so #much. I never used them on Twitter, and having to use them on Mastodon for discoverability feels at odds with the anti-advertising atmosphere.

I also hate tooting my own horn (so to speak) in the first place, so having to shoehorn them into my posts feels gross, and then come all the awkward considerations like "alphanumeric characters only", "capitalize for screen readers", "one word or two?" etc.
