This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Please stop calling them "apps", they are websites or social networks that has an app.
Good. The more people leave the cesspit, the better off they'll be.
Inb4 some speciously-reasoned lawsuit from the "Department of Government Efficiency" comes for BlueSky alleging anticompetitive practices or something equally ridiculous.
careful, people on lemmy will attack you for saying anything other than bluesky is bad and that mastodon is the only way forward
Joke's on them! My instance doesn't save downvotes. /hj
bluesky is bad and mastodon is the only way forward
see?!!?
Yes but my mastodon is either empty or full of Nazis until something gets banned. Threads is a bunch of old white dudes lecturing everyone about everything. On bsky I found most of the stuff I care about. Unfortunately that's where people are going.
I've been on Mastodon for a long time, and I haven't seen a single Nazi. If your Mastodon is "empty or full of Nazis," my guess is there's one of four things going on:
You aren't following/followed by good people. Use hashtags, boost toots, follow people back, follow accounts that try to share interesting accounts or hashtags.
ban and mute functions for bad actors. For especially bad ones, report them.You aren't following hashtags. Similar to the above, there's no algorithm. You decide what your feed looks like, and following hashtags for subjects you're interested in will help you find good people and good commentary (this is much healthier than letting a dumb algorithm decide what you'll find "most engaging," anyway)
You are looking at the Local or Global feeds too often. Depending on your instance's federation rules, you are more likely to find those aforementioned "bad actors" here, since these feeds are not curated.
Your definition of "Nazi" is the one that means "anyone left of Marxists," or, "supports Democrats," and if so, that's watering down the meaning of the word and giving cover to the real Nazis.
Whatever the case, if the people you're seeing aren't sharing your ideals, pick a different instance or spin up your own, and/or do the things I suggested (insomuch as they are relevant to you). My Mastodon feed is filled with artists and just generally positive people trying to do some good in the world.
Wow so funny and edgy! Kepp it up dude, you might have a career!
I think people have mostly given up on that, going from the posts I've seen. Like how most people will admit Linux isn't for everyone.
we live in two separate lemmy realities sir
The post about Stephen King moving to Threads says otherwise. But to be fair, it’s Threads and not Bluesky, which people here hate more.
Okay! Bye!
