because #mastodon is real

i'm not just talking about markov chain chatbots, AI slop, mindless trolls working agendas, etc, on centralized corporate #socialMedia

i'm saying the plastic bullshit on such traditional social media creates an ethos of detachment and mindless consumption

rather than genuine human engagement

mastodon emphasizes that

sometimes it gets heated

but again: that's real, not the social climate of manufactured fake bullshit we see elsewhere

Es tut sich was bei der @EUCommission, aber auch in Spanien.

Im aktuellen #MeTacheles Podcast 👉 share.transistor.fm/s/503806be fasse ich Anschuldigungen gegenueber #TikTok zusammen, die, bei Anpassung, faktisch das Aus fuer den #Bytedance Business bedeuten wuerden.

Ebenfalls im Angebot: Spaniens Premier Pedro Sanchez, der #SocialMedia als "Failed State" abfruehstueckt & die #BigTech CEOs haftbar machen will.

Freue mich ueber jeden Boost & euer Feedback!

Danke fuer euren Support 🙏

KI-Seite #Moltbook - Das soziale Netzwerk ohne Menschen

"Auf "Moltbook" posten keine menschlichen Nutzer, nur KI-Agenten. Sie diskutieren über Philosophie und gründen angeblich eigene Religionen. Dahinter lauern Sicherheitslücken – und die Frage, ob die Bots wirklich selbstständig handeln.
(...)
Es klingt wie Science-Fiction: Ein soziales Netzwerk, das aussieht wie die Plattform Reddit – aber Menschen dürfen nur zuschauen. Posten, kommentieren und abstimmen ist ausschließlich KI-Agenten vorbehalten. Willkommen auf Moltbook....."

How do folks manage the balance between having a more private social media experience with the fediverse versus a fully public one? I'm starting to run into some conflict with how I use the fediverse like I would my Instagram for example. I've always had private accounts because I only want to share with people I know. That doesn't seem to be an option here so it does limit the type of content I would be willing to share publicly. Thoughts?

Over the years, I've realized how far we've drifted from the original idea of the World Wide Web. These days, it feels more like a corporate, big-tech web. I think there's real value in self-hosting as much as possible while still using major platforms, especially when you can pick more European and reasonable options.

People often forget that YouTube, WhatsApp, and Instagram were once independent companies, not owned by Meta or Google. Google was meant to be ad-free, and OpenAI was founded as a non-profit research organization, etc.

We'll probably never return to that vision, but I'm glad I own most my data and have about half of my tech self-hosted and open-sourced. It's only a dent, but I'm proud of that dent.

#OpenWeb #Internet #SocialMedia #BigTech


Apparently there is a "backlash" against a Black community setting boundaries for themselves?

I guess that's one thing the fediverse and Atmosphere have in common. People throwing tantrums and demanding that complete strangers listen to their unwanted opinions.

Why not corporate #socialmedia?

1. Algorithm - pushes specific ideology, causes depression in young adults, distorts reality.

2. Owners propagandise their ideology (see above)

3. Certain voices are censored, just like in communist China. YouTube kicked off Aljazera news. TikTok US censors anti-#ICE sentiment, anti-genocide voices.

4. At election time, owners and the wealthy change the outcome of actual elections with social media.

TikTok could be forced to change the app’s ‘addictive design’ by the European Commission.

TikTok could be forced into changes to make the app less addictive to users after the EU indicated the platform had breached the bloc’s digital safety rules.

A preliminary EU ruling says the app shifts brains of users into ‘autopilot mode’, with concerns for children and vulnerable adults.

Spain’s youth minister floats a countrywide ban on X.

Spain’s youth minister Sira Rego has intensified Madrid’s clash with Big Tech after suggesting the country may need to curb — or even ban — access to Elon Musk’s social media platform X due to the “flagrant violations of fundamental rights” taking place there.

She says the current digital space is “undemocratic” and controlled by “a few digital strongmen.”

This analogy will become our motto: big tech social media is the new tobacco.

We’re taking far too long to realize it’s a cancer for democracies.

#Telegram #SocialMedia #democracy #FarRight #Spain #Sanchez




People who are "just asking questions" and "just sharing their opinion" that nobody asked for are in the minority here.

But until reply controls are implemented by more fediverse platforms, they will continue to ruin the experience of people here, and contribute to our community's negative reputation.

Let's continue to call this stuff out, and when appropriate, also report it.

Sanchez is going about this in the worst possible way. Strict "age verification" laws is another way of saying more online censorship, more digital gate keeping, more surveillance, and more unnecessary exposure of personal data in breaches and leaks. The blanket social media ban for children also denies them access to vital online resources and communities without regard for context. Parents should make this decision not governments

Lieber Cem von den Grünen. Ich schreibe das bewusst in einfacher Sprache, damit es wirklich jeder versteht. Ein Social-Media-Verbot für Jugendliche ist eine dumme Idee. Du sperrst junge Menschen aus, statt sie stark zu machen. Sie lernen keine Regeln. Keine Verantwortung. Dann sind sie strafmündig und allein im Netz. Und der Staat bestraft sie. Das ist unfair. Kümmere dich um die Plattformen. Nicht um Verbote für Kinder.

#CemÖzdemir #Jugendschutz #SocialMedia #SocialMediaVerbot #EinfacheSprache


Stell dir eine Stadt vor. Hohe Mauern. Dahinter Kinder. Kein Netz. Kein Lernen. Kein Üben. Nur Stille. Dann öffnet sich mit 14 das Tor. Die Welt geht an und sagt "Hallo"! Schlagartig. Grelles Licht. Algorithmen und Plattformen wie Raubtiere. Betrug wie Nebel. Hass und Geschrei. Niemand erklärt etwas. Niemand schützt. Und wenn ein Kind stolpert, kommt keine Hilfe. Es kommt die Polizei. Akte. Strafe. Das nennt die Politik Schutz für unsere Kinder. In Wahrheit ist es die Hölle und unsere Politik baut sie gerade!

#SocialMedia #SocialMediaVerbot #Jugendschutz #Grundrechte #Digitalpolitik


Pedro Sánchez sagt: „Unsere Kinder sind einem Bereich ausgesetzt, zu dem sie niemals unbeaufsichtigt Zugang haben sollten.“ Dann macht er ein Verbot. Das ist billig. Kinder werden vorgeschoben, weil Politik sich nicht traut, BigTech zu zwingen: Tracking stoppen, Sucht-Design verbieten, Werbung für Minderjährige untersagen, Algorithmen offenlegen.

I know this is already on Mastodon team's radar, but I do want to stress how important this feature is.

We won't get rid of the racism and the mansplaining on the fediverse overnight, but giving people control over their replies would significantly improve everyone's experience, and make this place a lot more inviting.

Blacksky has already built their own ATProto stack that's fully independent from Bluesky.

Now Eurosky is making progress as they roll out their own PDS.

I see more independent infrastructure springing up on atp.fyi/network, including AppViews.

For anyone hoping that we'll get another wave of people coming to the fediverse once Bluesky folds/enshittifies, that might not necessarily be the case as people will have more options to stay in the Atmosphere.

EU lawmakers request a TikTok probe into alleged censorship over the Epstein files.

Users say that since TikTok’s change in ownership to Oracle’s Larry Ellison, the platform has censored hot-button issues.

The group of 32 lawmakers have asked the European Commission to open an investigation into the platform to verify if it is “causing a systemic risk” to freedom of expression.
