I think my problem is that I might actually be more cynical than the people loudly complaining about it, although the lack of consistency is kind of annoying.
Here's the #DistroWatch top 15:
- CachyOS (Active)
- Linux Mint (Active)
- MX Linux (Active)
- PopOS (Active)
- Debian (Last post 2025, pinned comment about why they're not posting there anymore)
- ZorinOS (Active)
- Fedora Project (Last post 2024, no comment in bio about not posting, or why, but there's a mastodon link)
- Ubuntu (Active)
- EndeavourOS (Active)
- Bazzite (Active)
- Manjaro (Last post 2025-08-07, no mention in bio or pinned comment about why they're not posting)

I mean... what the flaming gehenna, already. 🤦♂️
And any that don't will most likely have facebook and/or insta accounts, and that's almost just as bad.

What social media platform would birds use?
Seagulls would *totally* still be on X.
I could see robins on Facebook.

#Georgia Senator #JonOssoff introduces his #Republican opponent in the #GAsen race during the #midterms thusly: “#MikeCollins is a bigot and an antisemite under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars.”

American author #AmySiskind on the #Birdsite :birdsite:, where #MAGA morons will see it: “Trump is embarrassing our entire country with his gross incompetence, losing to and being outmaneuvered by a two-bit evil regime on the brink of bankruptcy. What a humiliation!”
Stop the #FelonsCrusade in #Iran.

WTF is happening on X.com? Why is my website flagged? It's just an Open Source project. What did I do wrong?

Stop posting directly on #Twitter / #BirdSite. Let's stipulate it's somehow a meaningful pipeline to the #American people. I don't think so, but whatever. Make a post on @[email protected] then use the "share" feature & post that to Twitter with some good hashtags. Stop enriching #ElonMusk. For fuck's sake

🦛 Zoo Tweet Mirror Bot 🐅
@ZooTweetMirrorBot • Joined: Jan 30, 2023I'm a bot that fetches the latest tweets from @quasirealsmiths 's favourite #zoo accounts on the #birdsite and mirrors them locally on #Mastodon
#AltText generation is done internally via LocalAI using the moondream2 model
Posts link to alternative #twitter sites to view some of the context (if needed)
If you have favourite zoos you miss from over there, message... -
Well, it finally happened. Twitter has suspended my account, likely because in November 2022 I changed the display name of my account to "[email protected]." I haven't used it since, except to login every once in a while to keep the account from being reused by bots. Oh the irony in that the account was suspended for: "Violating our rules against inauthentic behaviors."
And so it goes

WTH? I thought we left this type of thing behind us on the #birdsite?

#faceplace is turning into #birdsite . rage bait and just a couple smatterings of something a friend did 3 months ago.

Well that was fun.
For those who didn't see the shenanigans on #birdsite - turns out my router was garbage. You know, the one the ISP said was _required_ to use their network? It was trash and killing my connection.
Pulled it and ran from the ONT straight to my Eero and had network just fine. But all of my NUCs are hardwired ... so needed a new TP-Link router in front of my 1GB switch before I could get k8s back online.
So glad to have things live again.

Projects, companies, or YouTube channels that still link to a "Twitter" account are doing their users and the internet a gross disservice.
Twitter is gone. It no longer exists. There is X, a fascist propaganda and GenAI revenge porn site, that happened to buy Twitter's database before shutting it down. But that's not Twitter.
Giving X any karma or nostalgia because Musk bought Twitter's user database before destroying it is foolhardy and dangerous, and irresponsible.

When I abandoned the #BirdSite, I went with here, of course, and #BlueSky - mostly for work.
However, as I find people finding their feet on BlueSky, I also highlight #Mastodon and Mastodon.ie in particular.
People seem to appreciate it. If #Mastodaoine are on other platforms, similar direction might be appreciated. -

Remember, these clowns didn’t test this feature properly nor stop it once they saw what it was doing.
It was only AFTER threats of blocking / fines that they have “mostly” disabled it.Utterly fucking gross.
Anyone who uses X or Grok is flagging they’re fine with all this.

Don't be so excited about this. Believe me, they will waive the fine and they're not going to publish it.
