A long slow dribble as people tag or otherwise comment on #borgsite and I watch as the #sms messages trickle in. I just swipe and delete. I am not going back to #borgsite. But that makes me smirk still. I told everyone about the #fediverse and nobody other than one of my friends ever took me seriously. That’s fine. Life is good here. Far better than anywhere else. Their loss. #today
#BorgSite
I told a family member that I no longer am on #borgsite and so, they now send me links every day back to the social latrine. I have a new use for #LLM’s. I want them to take these Facebook links and summarize what they found there. I don’t want to expose myself to that awfulness. I want a machine to do it. That’s part of the whole hazardous work part, right? I tried #Bard and it complained that it couldn’t do it. Wimp. Ah well, link goes unvisited. We need tech to shield us from the awfulness.
@Bluedepth What is #borgsite? I feel so out of touch.
I quit #borgsite and #birdsite and told all my friends I was going to #Mastodon and if they wanted to follow me, I’d be happy to help them build community.
They, save for one, yawned. And that’s really all I need to know, in a nutshell.
Then I just stopped sharing my dumb pointless life on #Signal. It’s just #shitposting now. They seem to like that better than anything I could share.
I accept it. I’m alone and that’s how it’s supposed to be. Don’t gripe. Just make it normal. #today

Hi Kelly,
welcome to the #Fediverse.
With your ambitious goals, I think you've come to the right place, as the scientific community is particularly strong here.
E.g., most of the #ClimateScientists have migrated here from the #BorgSite, also known as the #DeadBirdSite.
Things here work differently, so you might find these things useful to enjoy your presence here:
@liquor_american @timnitGebru @nathans
...essential.
I am almost positive that the #BorgSite is to be abused to carry out right-wing #psyops against the electorates of democratic countries in the style of the #CambridgeAnalytica scandal and the 2016 US presidential elections.
The second most important domino stones they need to fall are Germany and France, where they almost succeeded last year.
Shutting down #X, at least in the #EU, is probably the single most important issue for...
The #BorgSite is moribund.
It has been since the #QLoon bought it backed by the likes of MBS.
However, in so doing, it has been becoming less and less relevant.
The real battle to watch is the one the #BeEvil company and the #RottenApple are fighting to subjugate the #OpenWeb.
The former seems to be already in the roll-out process. Take a look at the linked long article. Horrifying.
@tizan
Yes, some popular accounts have been here for a longer time.
Not enough by far!
Most still serve as click-bait on the #BorgSite.
I would not call @Teri_Kanefield and @GottaLaff "influencers" in a #SocialMedia meaning.
Both have real content and provide insights into #Politics and/or #legal issues.

#RedditCensorship takes #Elmo's #BorgSite approach and has area eliminated #Fediverse entry.

Act now to protect your content and use the #Fediverse's #FOSS alternative:

EDIT/UPDATE:
I needed to remove #Lemmy as an alternative due to its dubious stance towards human-rights abuses, as explained in the next toot.

As you going to such great lengths, here is another great idea (borrowed from the #BorgSite ;)) that is great for the office or your home, in case you haven't got an air filter yet:
How much more will it take until you all pack up your things and leave the #Borgsite?

“Bye, bye birdie,” by the #European #Commission’s Vice-President for Values and #Transparency, Vera #Jourova the next day.(4)
After #Musk's most recent misdeeds (e.g. (4)), the many user complaints, and the second departure in this function within just a few months it seems obvious that the #BorgSite is...
@JulieNye
You could check if the #ClimateScientists who left the #BorgSite this week as a *group* did so having a go-to instance or platform.
If they moved to #Calckey, that would be a pretty sound evidence.

Right after #Elmo selling out #TFG's digital space on the #BorgSite, but still providing a barrel-burst start for #RDS' #PresidentialElection, #RonDeathSentence still sells himself cheaply, further endangering real national heroes' livelihood:
"Ron #DeSantis signed a bill that shields #SpaceX and other #aerospace companies from legal liabilities, the day after #Elon #Musk hosted the..."
BREAKING - PLS BOOST!
If you are interested in the #ClimateCrisis, follow the #ClimateScientists who left the #BorgSite as a GROUP.
We can all do something to "make this a thing":
follow as many as you can, so other BorgSite groups will learn of this success.
Let's make this #TwitterExodus an avalanche!
Scientists "suffering insults and mass-spam are abandoning Twitter," and setting up shop on Mastodon.

Not disagreeing, but I still think that the legacy #BorgSite technology will collapse within a year or so.

"...many platforms left that allow free speech. The last big one remaining in the world, the only one, is #Twitter, where we are now,” #Carlson said in his announcement."
Anyone who has followed #Elmo's more and more #rightwing inclinations on the #BorgSite can hardly be surprised.
In fact, this is a logical, strategic move to take #fascist and #misogynistic #propaganda global, completely in line with #CPAC meetings with the #UltRight #European #Pariah President,...
@wjmaggos @jeff @feditips @FediFollows @fediversenews
I said what I wish for.
I already spent too much time on the persona non grata on the #BorgSite.
Of course they can (and will) come here to spread their venom.
#FakeNews, #propaganda, and #brainwashing are great dangers for free and open societies.
I would argue that a big part of the #US population is already lost to central tenets of #democracy...
@wjmaggos @jeff @feditips @FediFollows @fediversenews
..., supranational organizations like the the #UN, the #WorldBank, the #OECD, and the most important #NPO's, as well as many #scientists here.
"Nothing wrong" with having many different artists here, because they develop culture.
The mega-#influencers from the #BorgSite or any of the #Meta sites would rather do without, too in many cases.
They often ...
