USE THE FEDIVERSE YOU FLIPPING POO-HEADS

The fediverse is hostile to ‘professionals’, and missing several features bluesky has, it is not a good replacement for them.
Couldn’t there be an association of professional societies that run their own mastodon instance and can control membership and federation?
Sure, it would likely get very heavily defederated from or attacked, but it could happen.
By ‘professionals’, do we mean Only Fans content creator? I haven’t tried hard enough to find them, but I assumed they’re here?
I follow many professional scientists and librarians on the Fediverse.
Beyond that - well those are the three professions that I trust to carry society.
I don’t see a ton of updates from plumbers and auto mechanics yet, but I think that is just adoption patterns at play?
People who want to run businesses through social media, Etsy sellers, artists for hire, youtubers, subreddits as a customer service avenue.
No, we meant all professionals, we have seen journalists and actors be attacked. We aren’t judging whether that was correct or not, just stating that is something which happens.
Edit: We just don’t really believe in the concept of professionalism beyond it meaning someone gets paid for something. Thus the ’ '.
Ok, yes, but can we fix the issue where my Lemmy account takes like 10 seconds to load the main subbed feed? The more subs I add, the slower it gets. I got someone to try Lemmy, but they’re rightfully put off by how slow it can be sometimes.
I don’t understand how so many people are comfortable voluntarily subjecting themselves to nazi propaganda and rule. The nazi-saluter all but literally has a dial that amplifies the most fervent to the expense of everyone else
There are not that many things I dislike hearing more than people saying “Formerly Twitter”. Either call it Twitter or X, but everyone knows what’s going on…

I have read some analysis that right-wing propaganda gets the most engagement when there are liberals in the community to provide the “liberal tears”. Yes, there is a core group happy to be in an echo chamber with only imagined liberal tears, but the majority find substitutes unsatisfying. Potentially the diminishing of non-right content volume will also diminishing the right content by making the comments less interesting.
Sadly we are well into the era of fragmented social media and echo chambers. It was always going to end up like this. Still, I hear you. Social media was more fun when everyone was on the same platforms.
Silver lining? Mastodon is full of scientists. It is amazing.
See you in 10 years when Raspputin sells you out again.
These scientists must be quite dumb.If i get 10years out of something, I consider that to be a pretty good run.
