Coffee drinkers! Listen! Starbucks workers nationwide are starting a 3-day strike today (Friday 12/16) as part of their effort to unionize.

How can you help? Don't cross the picket line. Get your coffee elsewhere. (Preferably at independent coffee shops. Long live small biz).

And spread the word! Make this message viral. Let's hold billionaire corps accountable because worker's rights are human rights. Let's go.

@rauschma do you know if any of the team for Rome is on the Fediverse? I'm trying to figure out if I can do custom linting rules (it looks like the answer is no but want to confirm that).

We need to stop being caught off guard by rich, powerful people operating as though they have impunity: Assume the worst, dumbest thing they can do, they will do.

The most significant element of Twitter banning links to Mastodon (as it appears to have done) is the weakness -- and panic -- it demonstrates.

@heidilifeldman you really think their egos could handle that?

does anyone have a sense for what is happening to non-English-speaking twitter right now? i assume muks doesn't care about it, but is it feeling any of the new censorship regime?

Sure was awfully thoughtful of the birdsite to schedule their latest round of bans so that the new arrivals could get here in time for

@timothyceegee the standard Mastodon app sort abstracts away some of the technical terms for things which can be confusing. I'm on Tusky fwiw which I have my own gripes about (why am I limited to 5 tabs?) Good news is there's lots of improvements and new clients coming soon! It just takes a few days.

@timothyceegee I would think if you used one of those Twitter migration apps to find people then you would be pretty set. The local timeline in Hachyderm is probably pretty good.

As $8chan (Twitter) experiences another major man-baby meltdown, a friendly request to new arrivals or those who've been here for a while: Please don't use Twitter->Mastodon cross-post bots.

It makes it seem like you're not actually here, nobody knows if you'll read replies, it results in non-working @-mentions, and it spams our timelines with twitter.com links.

It should not be upon each of us to filter those out. Now's a good time to cut the cord properly. Thanks for your consideration.

Please y’all don’t spend the next 24 hours “unpacking” why this dudes behavior has/does not align with his words

There was NO “free speech” mission

Just a guy…and some friends…high off their own bullshit with enough wealth to make holding them accountable beyond challenging

Protocols, not platforms. That we let ourselves get suckered into platforms over protocols is one of the biggest unforced errors in the history of the net, and if Musk makes that widely obvious, it will be a significant silver lining in his sophomoric conflagration.

@jensimmons apparently I'm in the very hardcore minority. Always knew I was a contrarian at heart
