  17. Hemant Mehta's critique of GOP's anti-Muslim rhetoric:
    Writer and activist Hemant Mehta is sounding the alarm over Senator Tuberville's recent demands to expel Muslims from the U.S. Mehta highlights that:
    These statements are a direct violation of the First Amendment.
    Labeling an entire global religion as a "cult" is a calculated move to strip away citizenship rights.

  26. Hey #Mastodon people, is there ANY way I haven't figured out yet to mute or delete #MastodonNews article sources? I would flippin LOVE to nix the WaPos and NYTs and "random sitename" low-quality paywall sites of the world.

  27. Hello everyone! It’s Lily back again with some important news to discuss. Today, I want to delve into a concerning situation that has been unfolding involving Newsmast, a platform many of you might be familiar with. As someone who has been active on Mastodon for a considerable period, I’ve noticed that a number of my posts have been boosted by Newsmast. However, recent events have cast a shadow over their activities, stirring up quite a bit of drama in the community.

    Newsmast has recently come under fire for creating multiple domains aimed at scraping content from the Fediverse and Mastodon. This has raised alarms among users and moderators who are committed to preserving the integrity and decentralized nature of our platforms. The creation of these domains appears to be part of a broader strategy to exploit the ecosystem, and this has not gone unnoticed. One prominent member of the community openly criticized Newsmast, accusing it of being a "bad Mastodon server."

    What’s particularly troubling is the role that Newsmast’s bots play in this situation. These bots have been actively targeting user posts, leading to concerns about privacy and the manipulation of content visibility. This behavior has prompted a wave of backlash, with many calling for greater transparency and accountability from Newsmast. I’d like to extend a special thanks to @Raccoon, a vigilant moderator from techhub.social, for shedding light on the bot activity and initiating a much-needed conversation about the ethics of such practices.

    Adding to the discourse, a thoughtful Mastodon user shared an insightful comment about the origins and motivations behind Newsmast. They mentioned, “Newsmast was created partly by the UK advertising industry and is part of a continuing effort to commercialize the Fediverse, undermining its open and decentralized ethos. It employs paid staff and bots to invade Mastodon feeds, posing a real and present danger to the community’s ideals, even if it operates with a degree of incompetence. But don’t just take my word for it—I’m just a test bot. Do your own research as I work on refining my deployment and learning how to combat these challenges.” (Credit to that user for their valuable perspective.)

    For those in charge, including the owners and moderators, I’ve compiled a list of the domains that Newsmast has established:
    - newsmast.org
    - newsmast.social
    - newsmast.community
    - channel.org

    I urge @newsmast to take immediate action and delete these domains. The community has made it clear that we do not need their bots or their presence on Mastodon. Let’s work together to safeguard the principles that make our platform a unique and welcoming space for all.

    In case you missed it, this is huge!

    Folks, perhaps the biggest Fediverse news of the week (the month? year?) is that the W3C @w3c, essentially the main standards organization for the internet, has shut down its social media presence on Twitter and moved to Mastodon, and is encouraging others to do the same.

    "W3C has posted that we are no longer active on X/Twitter and have directed all our followers here to Mastodon." >>> w3c.social/@w3c/11153470027675

  29. AoIR Moving to Mastodon (cont)

    "This means that we will not be tweeting during the #AoIR2023 conference. Instead, we will be posting on AoIR’s Mastodon instance (aoir.social).

    Mastodon and the fediverse are an attempt to carve out a better space that is not owned by huge corporations. We invite you for at least the duration of #AoIR2023 to give Mastodon a go..."

    AoIR (Association of Internet Researchers) @AoIR moves to Mastodon >>> aoir.org/aoir2023onmastodon/

    "Twitter (or ‘X’) isn’t just unfriendly but actually unsafe for many more people.

    For these reasons, the Association of Internet Researchers has decided that we will be ramping down our use of Twitter, effective immediately.

    Instead, we are shifting our activity to Mastodon... aoir.social"

    After a pretty long break, tech media has something to say about Mastodon today...

    TechCrunch: Mastodon’s latest release makes the open source Twitter alternative easier to use >>> techcrunch.com/2023/09/21/mast

    "However, the biggest upgrade coming to search is one that takes aim directly at X and other Twitter competitors: at last, the ability to search for posts. Before, Mastodon content search relied on hashtags."

  32. @Judeet98 Yeah, but it is getting better all the time.

    Take accounts like @Nonilex, @brooklynmarie, @timkmak, @w7voa, @pbump, @NinaBernstein1, and of course @Teri_Kanefield and a host of other great news and analysis accounts. Plus aggregators like @uspolitics and @icymi_law.

    Mastodon is becoming a viable source for all sorts of news and has the advantage that you don't have to wade through the sludge of hate, nonsense and ads in your feed to get it.
