The thing about CBS News stopping all posting on #twitter is that I still had to learn about it on twitter.
I'm searching for a better way to get breaking news here.
Because I really like Mastodon. #BreakingNews #CBSNews #RIPTwitter

CBS News Pauses Twitter Posts ‘In Light of Uncertainty’ Over Platform

CBS News is halting its activity on Twitter over Elon Musk’s turbulent and potentially devastating moves following his takeover of the company.

If you, like me, just can’t look away from the trainwreck that is Elon Musk’s management of #Twitter, be sure to follow @ZoeSchiffer on the bird site.

These updates are absolutely unreal. #riptwitter

Tweets from @ZoeSchiffer read: NEW: Email from Elon to the engineering team: "Anyone who can actually write software, please report to the 10th floor at 2pm today. Before doing so, please email me a bullet point summary of what your code commits have achieved in the past 6 months" Elon Musk is also asking for up 10 screenshots of the "most salient lines of code" from Twitter engineers Again, no context as to what this is about. We know Twitter's engineering teams have been gutted by layoffs and resignations. What's next?
Tweets from @ZoeSchiffer: NEW: In an email for remote Twitter engineers, Elon Musk says he wants to speak to people on video "only those who cannot physically get to Twitter HQ are excused") but "if possible, I would encourage you to fly to SF to present in person." He'll be at the office until midnight. I am having a difficult time believing this is real and I am looking at the emails.

#Friendica needs new contributors!

I'm not used to do this, but with the large influx of new users and node admins recently coming from #Twitter, our small team is now behind the curve for handling support requests, bug reports and bring about much-needed features.

The project is built on a #PHP/#MySQL platform, but we also need people to be able to assist others just using the software to give developers some space.

If you're willing and able to help, please follow @Friendica Support and the project on Github: github.com/friendica/friendica

Thank you!

@stim I didn't think Jesse's take on Mastodon was particularly informed or thoughtful, either.

Though I think he's right that #Twitter's role in relation to #news journalists has been outsized for its audience. That's part of what made it especially attractive to journos: it gave many of them more influence and bigger audiences.

And sometimes Jesse can be bit of a jerk, I think! But...I finally started donating this month after listening for years. Independent news is important.

Back to #Firefox I go! Multi-Account Containers are a killer #privacy feature that only Firefox (and maybe derivatives) has access to.

There's some helper add-ons to further silo #Facebook, #Twitter, and #Google. (That said, I use my own containers for Google to split my accounts)

#twitter: the blue checkmark soon costs 8$/month and does no longer mean much at all ❌

#deltachat: the blue checkmark does not cost money and guarantees someone is verified by you or by someone you verified ✅

as an extra, you can even protect your chats with verified persons against active attacs! ✅

Stubborn people on #Twitter people be like: "But there's nothing to see on #Mastodon..." 🤦🏻‍♂️

I thought I would follow @aral's example and finally get around to deleting my two twitter accounts that have both been unused for over a year.

I deactivate the first one and get a stupid email telling me that I have turned off two-factor authentication. (But it does appear to be deactivated).

I try to deactivate the second one but am told that twitter has suspended my account (who knows why) and won't let me delete it. 😞

@Gargron as a recent escapee from #twitter it was helpful to have a wide-open mastodon.social that has accepted me until I find my footing and figure out where my people are. Many I meant to follow went to instances that are now full. Having a (temporary) central clearing house might be useful though I see the sense in encouraging it to stay temporary.

Did you hear the news about Mr #Musk's suggested changes to the "blue tick" (a.k.a. "verified badge")? If not, you'll be delighted to know that we are finally turning it into a paid feature, making that green check mark extra special! ✅

As a symbol of our transparency at #Twitter Inc., we will also introduce semi-transparent verification badges. The opacity of the badge will depend on your selected Twitter Verified plan.
For only $10 a month, you can get a verification badge with 20% opacity!

Twitter verified badge, with 100%, 50%, and 20% opacity.
