People in glass houses…

Oh, the ratio

The whole “competition” on social networking is why the internet sucks
As someone who has never used twitter what di you mean?
- To be “ratio’d” or to note a ratio in regards to Twitter means that the reply received more likes/retweets than the original or higher up tweet.
- I never fully got it as a twitter user, but it has something to do with the ratio of likes I believe. The one person has hundreds where the other has 10s of thousands.

And they always respond with something like “I only bought it because I had money to waste”. Bullshit, you wanted the attention.

As someone who literally shits gold, not even I pay for twitter! (It's a real condition I swear)
- Call your doctor, here is his phone number: 555-1234Honytawk
  I will answer wearing a moustache.
- Unless you eat that much gold, you either have a supernova in your stomach or are violating the laws of thermodynamics
- Shit on me daddy

I just uninstalled twitter.

Really happy that I made the move to Bluesky. Really gives me a similar vibe to when I switched from reddit to lemmy. Everything's smaller, people are nice, not a lot of drama.. at least for now. We'll see how things change when the beta ends and more people start coming there.

I got my invite code yesterday. There’s a LOT of furries and not a lot of stuff I’m interested in.
- Haha yeah, the furries seem to love it for some reason. I don't know about other countries, but it feels like at least the core of my German bubble collectively moved there over the last couple of weeks. If you're looking for specific topics, celebrities or experts, it will definitely take a lot of time to build a new network that can compete with Twitter. Had high hopes in Mastodon for a while, everyone who was fed up with Elon moved there for like two weeks, and then it all fell apart.
- you sound as if your mad that furries exist

I keep Twitter installed because Musk will sell it eventually. Though I was never a fan. But Twitter helpful when there are sirens nearby.

I don't know if he'll find anyone gullible enough to buy it. At least not until after bankruptcy. Who would buy that company that doesn't make a profit and has that much debt? Only an idiot like Musk would do that.
- At a significant discount it can be appealing just for the amount of user data and reach. Someone bought yahoo then sold it to another one. Not good example of success but example of looking at the price and saying what the heck I'll take the risk.
- If I could buy Twitter I bet I could do a better job than its current owner. Best I can do is a quarter and some pocket lint, and I'm really taking a gamble here.
- Donald F. Trump.
There’s nothing wrong with using Twitter as a tool to keep yourself safe, heck it’s owner is a tool albeit not a useful one but a tool nonetheless.

I haven't updated the Twitter app on my Android since the icon change, and I refuse to let it update. Still works fine.

I learned something new today! I didn't know you could change apps on Android and now I feel a bit silly.

This is shortcuts on iOS, it has a few limitations like no notification badges
- “no notification badges”
  hell that’s a feature!
- No notifications, and a banner popover when you run it, which some people will find annoying
  It’s an easy way to get started with your first shortcut though!
Lots of Android launchers let you freely customize icons
- And names, I always rename those "My Company" apps to just "Company" so I can find them back in the list. That "My ..." stuff is so annoying.
Don’t feel silly!

Is this loss?
