Do I remember correctly that there was some conversation around #Bluesky considering a native #ActivityPub support?
📊First results from our #research project on the role of #Mastodon in #academia are in. n=346
1️⃣94.7% say they would increase their professional use of Mastodon if more academic peers from their field joined the platform
2️⃣71.4% report a lack of institutional support for using Mastodon
3️⃣66.1% indicate their professional Mastodon use would increase if their organizations were present on Mastodon
Stay tuned for more results.
bear with me for a second:
a million reasons, but a big reason the #democrats lost is because the center of gravity for #media has moved to #socialmedia
where the #trolls and #disinfo play. enough dum dums bought the lies
the democrats didn't play that game. because what game can they play in that shit?
it's literally owned by #plutocrats and #fascists
so... how do we fight?
we need our own
and what do we have
#mastodon and the #fediverse
we need to grow like a fucking weed
am i wrong?

"Thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Hannah Arendt warned us that the point of this deluge is not to persuade, but to overwhelm and paralyze our capacity to act. More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media in response to these ridiculous claims actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action.
The result is a media environment that keeps us in a state of debilitating fear and anger, endlessly reacting to our oppressors instead of organizing against them."

I think large social networks should verify users. It's like getting a driver's licence. If you don't want to verify your identity, you can, but you won't see content from unverified individuals and your content won't be visible to others.
The only problem is implementation. We need a system that chooses what data to transfer (name and age) and how.
Everything we write on open social networks should be something we can say on the street.

#NoAds, #NoManipulation 🚫 Big Tech shapes opinions through targeted ads and polarizing content: #Opensource #socialmedia empowers #communities with transparent #moderation.
#Better #MentalHealth 🧠 Research shows that algorithm-driven feeds fuel anxiety and addiction: #ActivityPub platforms, like #Mastodon, avoid manipulative engagement tactics. (1/2)
🆕 Out now: our study on #academic staff engagement on #Mastodon
🔗 Summary
https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15582839
💡 While Mastodon is valued for its ethical positioning, continued engagement hinges more on social and institutional dynamics than on technical features alone
➡️Ethical concerns drive adoption
➡️Peer presence matters more for staying than joining
➡️Academic institutions could be game-changers by leading adoption instead of waiting for grassroots growth
