Musk makes it hard to follow Kamala Harris on X, while donating 45Million per month to Trump
Trump-Lover Elon Musk Is Already Causing Kamala Harris Problems
Musk, the anti-free speech hypocrite.
Musk, the Apartheid trust fund baby
if you're still using twitter, then you deserve exactly everything you're getting from it
The thing that makes me nuts is people justify it by, "but it's the only place I can find (person or service)."
Back in my day! People posted their products and services on multiple platforms to reach a broader audience. If the creator you like is too lazy to market themselves, having gotten spoiled on "Xitter will do my marketing for me," then that's on them. Encourage them to post on other platforms in order to reach you.
They are complicit and so are you.
Kamala Harris isn't a 'creator'
Exactly. As simple as this.
How else is someone going to find out about Biden retiring? Twitter is the official government platform.
apparently not for much longer, if this post is true
Executive order moving all executive branch communications to The Fediverse.
Problem solved
That’s not going to move the Twitter userbase with it. Then they’d only be communicating with Fediverse adopters.
The media will have to monitor it or they will get scooped by anyone that does.
Once they are forced to live partially outside of that cesspool, they will see the value of setting up their own servers and jumping in.
Executive order seizing control of Twitter to establish it as a nationalized communication system
At least some of the US Government accounts have relays through Threads into Mastadon.
It's not ideal but it's better than being on xitter.
How do you solve for example, de-federation with government owned instances ( which I imagine many would do)
Mastodon suffers the same problem as Twitter, if the people in control of the servers don't like it, they get to be arbitrate for their users. The solution is not for everyone to host their own instance as it's just immensely wasteful and complex, and since de-federation is not positively communicated, one can go a very long time before realizing they are getting content filtered unwillingly.
I just don't see how this problem (specific content being blocked) would be solved by the Kamala Harris's campaign team having a mastodon instance.
I guess the same way you deal with the fact that Elon can ban people from Twitter
US government should immediately suspend and deactivate all their official Xitter accounts with a message asking people to stand against fascism
Nah, the government should leave en masse and say it's because it supports free speech. And post a screenshot of the 1st amendment.
Read this as levee en masse. Quite confusing.
If you're still on Twitter, fuck you.
How is it still a thing? Every day we stray further from God
There is nothing we can do people. There is absolutely no other option, we just have to continue using Twitter :'(
I'm sure the respected journalist Matt Taibi is cracking the case right down as we speak... surely you're back on the Twitter files, aren't you Matt?
FYI there is a threads relay to mastadon for the official White House account. There's also several unofficial xitter relays for VP Harris to Mastadon.
If you'd like official accounts on Mastadon please contact the White House / Biden / Harris and let them know.
Musk has also attacked Harris more directly. “Democrats destroy democracy in pursuit of power,” a QAnon-linked influencer wrote with Biden’s resignation letter attached. “The Democratic elite, corporate media, and billionaire donors successfully pressured the candidate chosen by Democratic primary voters to drop out because he’s down in the polls and losing.”
Same bs "moderates" tried to frame Biden stepping down...
They really do sound more and more like trumpets everyday
So land of the free but if we vote for you to run you have to even if you don't want to anymore. I didn't vote for Biden in my primary.
I’ve seen this claim in two news stories with no evidence. I just followed her effortlessly using these steps:
It worked without a problem
I mean, the story linked above includes a screenshot showing the rate-limiting error message. I assume it's been fixed, but no reason to think the rate limit error didn't actually happen.
no reason to think the rate limit error didn't actually happen
So maybe it’s true, maybe it isn’t. I haven’t seen evidence other than the claim of someone who supposedly follows thousands of people but hadn’t yet followed the vice president.
Not saying it is true, not saying it isn’t. Saying it might not be, and my own observation doesn’t replicate the claim.
It was a rate limit for someone following too many people. Anyone can go follow her no problem. The person writing this article know there are morons out there that will eat up and share anything vaguely anti-musk.
It is ridiculous that we have gotten to the point that completely clearly pointing out that an article is BS gets downvoted. Do better lemmyites.
