I expect Twitter to remain mostly the same under Elon except it’ll somehow get massive federal subsidies and occasionally burst into flames

This content type is full of IndieWeb post types, which are all content types which allow me to take greater ownership of my own data. These are likely unrelated to my blog posts. You can find a better breakdown by actual post kind below:

The amount of brainwashing needed to think the richest guy on earth owning Twitter, the second richest guy owning the Washington post, and the fifth richest guy owning Facebook and Instagram could possibly be a good thing is immense.

In typical fashion, half the breaking news about what is happening at Twitter, as posted on Twitter, turns out to be false. These are not data engineers: they’re pranksters, pretending to have been fired. It works: I see this tweet quoted as source across my feed.Post details

For every 20 people on tech Twitter sharing only a “find me at [social network] too” I see one sharing their blog url or RSS feed, or vowing to post one. I understand why but part of me wonders if we haven’t learned anything.David Bisset (@dimensionmedia)Fri, 28 Oct 2022 17:43 +0000
I don't talk about job promotions very often, but this one deserves a little celebration. I just made L9 as an individual contributor on Google's engineering ladder, which means I've earned the privilege of referring to my role as "Distinguished" on all my slide decks.

You can be a cop and hurt or even kill people, and you almost certainly won’t be fired. But if you have an Only Fans? You’re OUT, ladies! Because the police hold people to MORAL STANDARDS 🙄Post details

If one man can buy one of the world's biggest social media platforms because he's bored, that's a pretty strong indication we are not taxing the rich anywhere near as much as we should

Hey @TwitterSupport! Now that “the bird is free”, could you please also free @mmatuzo? He’s not a spammer nor a troll. He is a much-needed voice of change in the Web community who creates important work – and you deplatformed him for no reason! That’s just not cool. 😒Post details
Wow, @mmatuzo is now suspended? 🤯 Manuel is a well-respected member of the web community, accessibility advocate, and international conference speaker. Please look into this, @TwitterSupport – there really must be an error here!Matthias Ott—bring back @mmatuzo (@m_ott)Mon, 24 Oct 2022 20:50 +0000

yep! giga-racists and horrendous harassment parties make Twtter great! an individual cannot block hundreds or thousands of people. no site should just bulldoze you with hate speech and go "aww you dont like this? sowwy go cry about it"Post details
This is going to cause controversy, but platform censorship had clearly gone too far. Content moderation should be an individual decision, not a corporate prison.

It is my strong belief that VC-backed OSS creates perverse incentives that are fundamentally at odds with the open source ethos. It promotes competition over collaboration, lock-in over flexibility, marketing over innovation, and eventually, monetization.
