#birdsite — Public Fediverse posts

"X is showing some ads in users' Following feeds without an "Ad" label, recognizable only by clicking for more information, which could attract FTC scrutiny" #Birdsite #scammy #ftc https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/08/x-formerly-twitter-caught-running-unlabeled-ads-in-users-following-feeds/

#Greenblatt called #Musk’s threat of a #lawsuit “#frivolous” & said Musk’s behavior was #reckless & #dangerous, coming 2 weeks ahead of the #Jewish High Holidays.

The Forward, a daily Jewish publication, has since recently started a running list of Musk’s “disturbing comments.”

Things I've learned since I ditched the #birdsite for good:

We don't need to know everything about everywhere all of the time! It's OK to fall behind on local and world news; to catch up at weekends, or to abandon the #newscycle altogether!

We shouldn't feel annoyed with ourselves when a friend updates us on something we hadn't yet heard ourselves. Conversations feel so much more natural when those taking part haven't already heard absolutely everything there is to hear about already!

To celebrate the total demise of #birdsite as a thing, we **finally** had the PNG image files added to this page.

This is an excellent #Substack post about that guy, his #BirdSite, and why you should be here more often (and other places like it) rather than over “there.”

(Plus, reading between the lines, welcome back to #blogging, everyone.)

Quote: “It almost makes you think that when people who are enriched from the existing status quo engage in what they call “disruption,” what they are #disrupting is any #progress away from the #status #quo.”
