  Tagesspiegel today: TikTok is a radicalization engine. So is X. #LeaveTikTok #LeaveX #FarRight #CSD #BigTech #SocialMedia

• Post #4098728

  Good question: Why does @PolizeiBerlin@berlin.social still rely exclusively on X for emergency updates? And why was mobile reception allowed to fail at such a major event? During an emergency, people searching for relatives and friends need reliable access to timely official information, not dependence on a platform controlled by a dangerous far-right billionaire. Public authorities must do better. https://dju.social/@DerKlimablog/116982904247901359 #Berlin #CSD #LeaveX #FarRight

  We’ve redefined how the statistics are calculated. From now on, only politicians with an X account are counted. We’ve also updated the wording from “inactive” to “exited”. If a MEP has an X account and hasn’t publicly stated that they left, they are considered active. Only MEPs who delete their account or explicitly announce they are leaving X are counted as out of X. There are still 418 MEPs (58%) to go https://leavex.eu/politicians/ Thank you to everyone who provided corrections! #LeaveX...

  RE: https://chaos.social/@plinubius/116519776600070319 EN: The emphasis on "reach" regarding X in Martin Andree's presentation. One can sense just how much of a blow the German public is taking from the bold decision by German political parties to abandon X ;-) #LeaveX #Democracy #Germany #NoAfD

  You can now copy email addresses of selected MPs on Leave X. If politicians claim to defend democracy, they shouldn’t stay on a platform that actively undermines it. Contact them directly: - https://leavex.eu/politicians/ - https://leavex.eu/politicians-nl/ #LeaveX #Democracy #Europe #Netherlands

  Which EU country will be the first to officially move its public institutions to a national Mastodon instance, bringing political debate to the Fediverse and away from disinformation platforms like X? We know some national-level instances already exist (e.g. in Germany). The question is: who will make it a political decision, not just a technical one? If you think of another country, add it in the comments 👇 #LeaveX #EU #Democracy #Mastodon #Fediverse

  RE: https://social.tchncs.de/@kuketzblog/116464952827497758 EN: Headline: “Signal Hacked” – No. Nobody was hacked. What really happened: Politicians clicked on a phishing link and revealed their verification code or PIN. Signal itself has not been compromised, the encryption works perfectly. This is not a failure of the app, but a failure of basic digital skills. (...) The scary thing is that the very people who decide on IT security, laws and surveillance do not master the basic digital rul...

  “The Girl in the Garden”, by Mary Cassatt, adapted to modern times. She scrolls through X, a feed full of child abuse and hate speech, while the bourgeoisie politely looks away. #Impressionism #MaryCassatt #MuseedOrsay #Paris #LeaveX #ChildAbuse #HateSpeech

• Post #1215947

  We prefer #Mastodon for several reasons, the main one being its ability to easily form independent, community-driven interoperable instances. Nevertheless, we have a #Bluesky account so as not to exclude people who prefer this alternative. Recently we migrated our original account from the main BlueSky PDS to the EuroSky PDS (@eurosky.social). All day, it was impossible to access BlueSky using the official app. Can anyone explain why? This is problematic in terms of #decentralization. #ATProto

  Social media is turning into a freak show https://www.natesilver.net/p/social-media-has-become-a-freak-show The ecosystem is unhealthy, especially on X/Twitter, and that's producing some strange beasts among the most influential accounts. 1/3 #LeaveX #FarRight #BigTech #SocialMedia

  I often see posts on LinkedIn about EuroSky. The MEP @alexandrageese often likes them. If our MEPs finally decide to leave X, will they mainly go to BlueSky or a European server? It's better than nothing, but I wonder how they will adapt to the #Fediverse. We shouldn't forget that the EU Commission is active here at @EUCommission #LeaveX #BlueSky #EuroSky #ATProtocol #ActivityPub #Europe #EU

  Algorithmic Bias on TikTok and Instagram in Germany "...we explored the recommender algorithms of TikTok and Instagram to assess the extent to which a user’s political interest and preferences influenced the amount of political content they were exposed to and how this varied across the two platforms.
