Another to add to the list of shocking but no longer surprising acts of insider trading, market manipulation, self-dealing, profiteering, and naked corruption at the expense of the world and the American people. Extra low points where there is such a direct cost in human lives of course. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg547ljepvzo

@Daojoan The language and psychology at play is utterly bizarre... on the plus side, here in a UK by-election an "elitist" smart female plumber representing the Green party just beat a far right pseudo-academic "man of the people" backed by billionaires.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online that is all fair, and I certainly support having empathy, assuming good faith, etc. The meaning of my comments are essentially that in my honest opinion Mastodon doesn't have a significantly higher barrier to entry or steeper learning curve than other 'social media' platforms. Additionally, read through the comments on @libreoffice@fosstodon.org X post and it's hard to avoid the conclusion that there is quite a bit of bad faith / trolling going on in addition to genuine preference for X over Mastodon

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online I hope and tend to assume unless shown otherwise that outright lying may is rare, but I do strongly suspect that some people who parrot the 'unusable' line have put zero (or close to) effect in to really trying it.

@stefan @ghouston @oblomov @libreoffice yeah, I'm all in favour of usability improvements. Nothing complex is ever finished and certainly not perfect. I just don't see how anyone who can function unaided in the general world can't use mastodon, especially someone who has used Twitter / X. Really the only 'issues' I can imagine are initial uncertainty about choosing an instance, and the fact that 'feed' will be very quiet unless / until you proactively populate it.

@ghouston @oblomov @libreoffice I do find it strange that there seems to just be this accepted wisdom that 'Mastodon is a usability nightmare'.. parroted widely, including by those who claim to love open source and have tried it. I just don't see it.

@mhoye@cosocial.ca and simultaneously firms 'embracing ai' for 'increased productivity' are laying people off and then making those who remain 'accountabiliy sinks' for everything the automated system they imposed screws up... It's the worst of both worlds. (See also, @pluralistic@mamot.fr Reverse Centaurs metaphor)

@amirbkhan A liberal democratic society must include the right to develop and share technology, adopting openly developed and shared technology can certainly aid in protecting liberal democracy.
