I wrote about my first two months on Mastodon. I was a Mastodon hater because I thought it would be weird, complicated, or dead. It's been none of those things.

I'm ashamed I didn't join earlier and I'm ashamed I haven't been telling people to join it, because it's a version of the internet and social media I've long advocated for with my reporting: decentralized, portable, user controlled, not corporate:

Just so proud of Mastodon today.

These times are very challenging. Rather than descend into an abyss of fake news and stident acrimony, somehow Mastodon seems to be largely maintaining a civil tone and self regulating misinformation.

It is pretty amazing to see an open social media community functioning this well given the meltdown across other platforms.

Let's continue to demand accuracy and civility while we debate these seminal issues. Let Mastodon be the beacon in these dark times.

Hey Mastodon! 👋 Here is our #introduction post: We are the Data Visualization Lab at Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University. You can find more about our work here: https://vis.khoury.northeastern.edu/

We'd love to be connected to more folks and labs in the realms of #DataVisualization #HCI #xAI #AR #VR #VisualAnalytics #PhD #Research

Our lab has been applying visualization to domain areas like #accessibility #UAVs #Genetics #Privacy #Pedagogy #Networks #GraphTheory

Small reminder that I am still working on moderation tooling for the fediverse — this is what I do pretty much full-time, but it's only possible with your support:

There's a really big thing I've been working on that I should be able to share soon, and a dozen smaller projects too.

🔥 Our biggest update yet: our new quarterly report on the #TwitterMigration is live!

Covers the stark negative impact of the X rebrand, the dramatic rise, cooling & now stabilizing of Threads as a competitor closer on X’s heels than most think. Also features the state of play of Mastodon & BlueSky as rising alternatives while other new social entries shrink.

Is an in-depth view of the best third-party research and original analysis from my team.
