I haven’t mentioned #Spoutible in awhile. It’s remarkable that it still exists! So many others have tried to create similar platforms and didn’t survive.

While not my cup of tea (it’s mostly political talk) they’ve found a core community and it works for them. Good.

The owner of Spoutible, Bouzy, mentions that compared to the vitriol of other platforms, he is happy with what he built with Spoutible.

#GoodMorningEarlyTooters and #HappyHappy #TrueTrueTuesday...!

I love the summary of my account on Spoutible! 🙂

#Spoutible

The user frequently spouts about their experiences with various K-dramas, sharing detailed impressions and recommendations of shows they've watched, alongside expressing a preference for messaging apps like LINE, KakaoTalk, and alternatives to WhatsApp. Their affinity for pop culture is evident through their commentary on movies and shows, as well as mentions of social media platforms like Bluesky and Mastodon. They often share personal anecdotes, including health challenges affecting their social activities, and have a keen interest in petitions related to keeping beloved shows alive, like "Neighbours." The themes of community, entertainment, and personal struggles are prevalent throughout their spouts, along with a strong engagement with digital communication tools and a desire for interaction with others.

I haven't mentioned Spoutible in awhile, because not much has changed. But..the news is that they are still there! Compared to other platforms that were building up around that same time, their longevity is unqiue.

Yes, it's a centralized platform. But they found their niche (lots of anti-Trump politicos) and created a home outside of Meta and X. I'm happy those folks found a community.

Their moderation options are interesting, too. Much more individual user control.

@sylv_a I'd like to add #spoutible to the mix.

I began using #Spoutible #Mastodon #Tribel again because it looks like Bluesky are starting to allow trolls and hateful accounts on the platform. Having other platforms to use is like a social media bug out bag.

Is #Spoutible still a thing?
I created an account, but haven't heard anyone talking about it since it's go-live.

@troyhunt thanks as always for sharing. That #spoutible api story was hair raising.

I wish I could leave it all behind and live on #Bluesky, #Mastodon and #Spoutible, but the issue isn’t me it’s everyone else. They’re drinking the KoolAid friends.

So 404Media already reporting on #Bluesky data being used to create an identifiable #dataset for #AI training.

Seriously thinking of exiting and just keeping #Spoutible and #Mastodon. So sick of this BS.

Spoutible joins the starter pack trend and adds shareable lists, calling them Community Bundles. An interesting aspect is that bundles are synced. If the author adds, removes or otherwise edits their bundle, the changes are automatically seen by anyone subscribed to it.

“If you can’t pay your workers a living wage you don’t have a biz model, you have an **exploitation** model.”

@Jimp32 (Jim Plunkett) NAILED it on #Spoutible.

#Spoutible announced the launch of Community Bundles on Monday 25.11.! Community Bundles are customizable lists that anyone can create and share with the community. You can add all of your favorite people you follow and make that bundle available to everyone.

Christopher Bouzy of #Spoutible is a FRAUD who only cares about his bottom line.

He SUSPENDED me from Spoutible for mentioning #Bluesky and how everyone is going there. Only took a half hour after that post and poof I was terminated by Bouzy.

@zoltandulac @Lottie This is the second time I saw this topic in less than a week (the first was in Bluesky). I can't believe it's an issue. I for one find "AI" generated alt text useful. If I'm not mistaken, the #Spoutible community implemeted it in 1Q of 2024, including creating a summary for threaded posts.

And as mentioned, it's a good first pass.

Now I'm curious, how did this anti-AI alt text started? Who complained about it? What was it they're whining about?

Simply hating technology just because "AI" without understanding how it is used or can be useful, in this case #a11y , is just whining and noise. "Alt text" text don't even qualify under Copyright laws anywhere, so I can't understand why there are people complaining about it being used for alt text.

What did I miss?
