Police State UK

So many people opted out of the sneaky landgrab of users' rights, that Xitter have now decided to post new T&C with it all baked in: x.com/en/tos So it's time for us to stop posting here. We get a lot more replies and shares on Mastodon anyway: @PoliceStateUK" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mastodon.me.uk/@PoliceStateUK

If you're not sure which server to join, the short answer is "any of them", but here are the sign-up pages of some UK/politics-oriented servers: mastodonapp.uk/auth/sign_up mastodon.scot/auth/sign_up toot.wales/auth/sign_up mastodon.iow.social/auth/sign_up mastodon.london/auth/sign_up

Just created a new profile on Mastodon. Anybody following us here who's also on there should follow us there instead. You're much more likely to see our posts there, without the Twitter/X algorithm picking and choosing what you see and what you don't. @PoliceStateUK" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mastodon.me.uk/@PoliceStateUK

@BuntlineAtSea Not keen to repeat the mistake of trusting a single company or service again. There are already thousands of independent servers federated with the #ActivityPub protocol that #Mastodon uses: @fediverse" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mastodont.cat/@fediverse I think there are BlueSky bridges under construction though 🤞

@PoliceStateUK Would you consider cross-posting to BlueSky as well? A lot of us escaped over there instead, and I’m not going to join Mastodon just for one account I’d like to keep following.
