  There ARE alternatives already and lots of great people are working on these platforms - but as long as everyone stays there „just because of…“, things won‘t change even with these options.

  If great things are cloaked under a warning or a NSFW-label for no real reason, it‘s of course up to everyone to choose a different path - but this means losing followers etc. pp. - and embarking on a new platform.

  So yes, we can overwhelm this platform - but do people really want this? I‘m not sure. 🤷🏼‍♂️

  Hopefully we make it „safe“. 🫢

  One more reason the leave this digital sh*thole - if empathy is going to be restricted, it is simply not wanted on these platforms… 😔

  It‘s not only the registration, it‘s the complete usage of the service. Tricky thing.

  In my eyes, this will be just the tip of the iceberg. Mississippi now, what reason comes next? DJT wanting to exclude specific groups of users? Cut off whole countries? Who knows… There will be additional reasons and if you ask me, this is just the beginning with the ugly potential to turn into censorship.

  Got the point, but surely they will have more legal tools than I do with my single-user Mastodon-instance - which has registrations disabled, but doesn‘t prevent any country from reaching it. 🤷🏼‍♂️

  “It’s decentralized! It’s open!” they’ve said. But, despite all doubts from the very beginning, Bluesky is no option for an open and decentralized web at all. There ARE reasons for protecting users under 18, but cutting a whole state off the platform is simply a certain kind of censorship.

  There was hope for this service but the crypto-bro-background and the current state of the USA did a complete disservice to the platform, disqualifying it as an alternative for any federated, decentralized and free network like Mastodon and Co.!

  💯! Alone KOTOR 1 and 2 in a remastered version would be something worth dying for - never stop dreaming! 🙏🏻

  It‘s no brand thing. It‘s just a reaction on the way Ubisoft releases games these days and yes, the game could have been better but without the Star Wars-tag, it wouldn‘t have been noticed at all.

  The same „next week“ that already delivered FSD and all the other fictional stuff by Elmo? Anyway, playing Nazi-tunes instead of farts and having a right-hand-twist at navigating is surely this special USP still missing…

  Shit in, shit out - doesn‘t differ from the usual Twitter-experience these days. 🤷🏼‍♂️
