  1. Well, look who's shaking things up again! X is officially retiring Twitter.com, and if you don't update your account by Nov 10, consider yourself locked out. Because nothing says 'user-friendly' like a forced digital eviction. What's the wildest platform change you've ever navigated?

  2. It made sense in January, and it makes even more sense now: do not rely on meta's platforms:

    Might be preaching to the choir here on Mastodon.

    Leave Meta’s Platforms

  4. This is why I moved my articles and blogging to ghost, and not substack:

    Want help shifting from substack to ghost? Let me know.

  5. I'm migrating my articles and blogging, and you can kind of follow my process.

    I just posted this, which includes this line: "Building your goals in someone else’s sandbox alone is not ideal, a little like building a castle on sand."

  6. It’s been a month since I began my transition from big tech systems – marked by this banner on my Facebook account: “I’m more and more elsewhere…”

    Now building on Mastodon, Threema, Pixelfed etc. See my new blog & initiative for context: techtonicshift.vivaldi.net

    Any advice for me and my fellow followers from Facebook on how to effectively rebuild initial networks here (or across the Fediverse) is very welcome!

  7. The developments on Bluesky in the past few days are wild! I've never witnessed such influx of followers on any platform before. Obviously, post-election, there is a massive exodus from Twitter and a significant number of people seem to be finding refuge on Bluesky. Digital migration of enormous proportions. Very interesting developments, which I thought you may be interested in

  8. 🚀1 year since we left #X / #Twitter

    Our move to #Mastodon wasn't just a platform switch. It was a leap into #OpenScience in action.

    We found a chance to align our communication w/ our values: transparent, meaningful, dialogue-driven.

  9. "Ever feel like your social media migration is like moving houses, but in the digital world? 🏡💻 With Pixelfed Account Migration, it's like having a moving truck that can cross dimensions, making sure not just your furniture, but all your followers come along too! Here's to making new homes in the #fediverse, where the neighbors are just a click away. 🌐❤️ #DigitalMigration #SocialMediaLife"

  10. Asking for recommendations:

    I'm looking for a new instance. #universeodon has become essentially unusable since Byron's departure and the recent server migration. A mix of timeouts, server failures, and just missing posts. I've been supporting it via Patreon so am more than willing to support a new server.

    What i'd like is stability and reasonable performance. An interesting local feed is a bonus. Not looking for an instance based on a single interest group or one that's highly ideological.

    Suggestions?

    (Now we'll see if this actually posts and if I'm actually able to see replies.)

  12. A disaster arising partly from naive choices made by compradors enthralled by Silicon Valley & "WMC" giants. For a moment around 2010 a localised #Datacasting ecosystem was considered, then it was dropped for some baubles. itweb.co.za/content/KjlyrvwBzB #DigitalMigration
