  Keep pressuring all journalists, celebrities, brands, and influencers to delete their accounts or at least stop posting there (and publicly say so). Twitter’s only power to spread untruths is the eyeballs still watching it.

  What took them so long?

    Immediately critising someone/a group for doing the right thing but not doing enough/quickly enough is probably one of the main reasons its so hard to get traction for progressive politics. It’s incredibly tiresome.

      Agreed, it comes off as petulant and is really grating when fellow supporters get all smarmy when said individual/group doesn’t immediately adopt the next thing in progressive politics the nanosecond it enters public discussion.

  Seems Vance threatening tariffs to nations that limit musks political bull.

  Has made the political corruption so obvious it can’t be ignored.

  Good guy The Guardian. For my fellow Brits, here is your regular reminder that there are only two major independent news outlets in the UK: The Guardian and the BBC.

    The BBC is run by Zionists.

    BBC director and editorial standard setter Robbie Gibb is owner of the Jewish Chronicle, whose funding is a secret.

    The Guardian editor kowtows to the Israel lobby and the right.

    Legacy media is inherently self serving and serves the interests of the powerful.

  Responding to the announcement, Musk posted on X that the Guardian was “irrelevant” and a “laboriously vile propaganda machine”.

  The Guardian is rubber, and Musk is glue.

  I’ll keep an eye on the feddit.uk applications for grauniad@theguardian.com in that case!

    I was considering getting their RSS feed dragged through to Lemmy via:

    We don’t have a Mastodon server, do we?

    I joined Mastodon years ago, but the server I joined was always a bit moribund and I sort of lost interest. Wouldn’t be against someone doing a Fedwitter.uk…

    (It should not be called Fedwitter.uk under any circumstances)

      There are a few British Mastodon instances:

      • mastodonapp.uk
      • mastodon.me.uk

      If we were to add another service, I’d want something a bit more interesting.

      I mean, we should be able to interact with mastodon via fedipub, right?

      If we had a separate server, it might be messy, as then there are two sets of accounts.
