#wtsocial — Public Fediverse posts

While I am going through my old emails trying to decide on what to delete and what to move to my new #ProtonMail account, I stumbled accross my #WTSocial invite link.

Out of curiosity I logged in and saw that they migrated to another service called #TrustCafe

Is anyone in here using trustcafe actively?

@jdp23 @tchambers interesting, is it just because posts can be edited? #fediverse is in principle not immune to #spam but I suppose it has reasonable ways to deal with it by instance admin action and just blocking instances if they do not protect themselves. #WTSocial seems to have some advanced user vetoing, no? If so, why does it have so much spam?

I'm giving up on WT.Social. It's a neat idea, but failed to gain critical mass in a reasonable timeframe, and even the upcoming big release 2 doesn't sound like it would alter the fundamentals. And now I've found that the person I read the most from on WTS (the prolific @estherschindler) is on Mastodon as well.

You know that niche social network developed by the wikipedia founder? There's a roadmap for version two and I love how fresh and experimental its ideas are.

@jaz oh yeah, I forgot that I still occasionally receive #WTSocial emails. I think his insight and vision would be helpful in #fediverse

"Mastadon [sic], a flexible open-source social media platform that appears promising but has its own set of drawbacks, is one such existing Twitter alternative. […] Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia, […] has proposed plans for a competitor to Elon’s bird-site."

I don't know if there's anything new this month with WT.Social (it's been around for 3 years), but I guess it's part of the Twitter exodus.

Who runs #WTSocial? Is #JordanPeterson associated with it?

@leo_mantooo @toad il fondatore di Wikipedia Jimmi Wales ha creato il social a pagamento senza profilazione/algoritmi, si chiama WT Ssocial:

https://wt.social/

Costa 12$ al mese 😅

Non so quanti utenti paganti abbia ora, comunque avere i pulsanti di Facebook e Twitter per fare login la dice lunga su quanto considerino la privacy.
Ovviamente di decentralizzare il web manco un accenno.
Non è la prima volta che ci prova, anni fa tentò con #wikitribune, ora chiuso, da cui deriva #wtsocial

Any thoughts on #WTSocial? I love #Wikipedia. Unlike #mastodon WT.Social is committed to being a competitive alternative to #facebook and #twitter. I wish more people knew about mastodon!

Is anyone from here on WT.social? I just joined - the waiting time wasn't too long. I've yet to post, but I am looking for people to follow while I figure it out. #wtsocial

#WTsocial, Jimbo Wales and Mastodon https://twitter.com/jimmy_wales/status/1201622018308952067?s=19

Had to put #wtsocial emails to skip my inbox and go straight to archives - too much spam.

If you haven't signed up for WT.Social yet, doooo eeeeeeeeeeeet

I seem to be creating accounts on any social network I can find. I'm now also on WT:Social... https://wt.social/u/gidi-kroon

#WTSocial seems to have news-based, grouped-by-topic, collaborative discussions

Re: #WTsocial

I would like to contribute by running an instance. Not by shipping money to Mr Wales!

Wikipedia founder launches social network called WT:Social to rival Facebook

WT:Social is the creation of British-American web entrepreneur Jimmy Wales. As at 15 Nov 2019 the membership is just passing 92,000.
The current interface is relatively bare, with a feed that consists of news stories, comments, and SubWikis which users can follow to stay up to date on particular topics of interest. The site emphasises the provision of trustworthy news articles.
