The only alternatives mentioned were Threads and Bluesky.
about time…
Start pushing for mastodon! Honestly there should be an official mastodon instance
You mean mstdn.social?
I mean there should be a mastodon.gov.uk
Be careful. He might sue saying you have to use the platform. He’ll claim that not using it hurts his free speech.
Yeah, not sure the UK Labour party are going to be receptive to a free speech argument, given recent events. If anything, an updated law might make X liable for the real-world problems it causes.
People in the UK need to start pushing Mastodon hard. You could use the tagline “You don’t want to switch services again in a few years, do you?”
Politicians and public should consider quitting X, says Liverpool mayor
“The time is approaching where we’ve got to all examine whether we should, en masse, withdraw from it and for there to be a different platform”
Only now? It’s been two years of this and now they’ve had too much? No partial credit should be given for people that continued to participate when it was clear what was happening.
Also, I don’t believe a significant number of them actually will.
Have barely touched Twitter since Muskification ruined it.
Threads is okay but Mastodon would be brill with more interaction.
checks watch
Uh, sure. Now is good. Several years ago was better, but, yeah.
The second best time is now.
They could start their own fediverse instance and ruthless ban users who have ever agreed with Jeremy Corbyn.
Is it finally time? The beginning of the end?
Uh oh, some MPs are about to get sued.
If they actually worried about hate and disinformation they would have quit before it was called X.
Why does no one mention Mastodon AS an alternative(from the MPs)
It’s rare to see such a big fuck up as with twitter…
Labour MP’s need to put their grown up pants on and work for the people instead of being emotional about a platform.
