@gemswinc I have been on Twitter since 2009 and am really pissed that this sh*tass drove it into the ground. I carefully curated lots of excellent journos which I have to hunt down. Also following newsites around the globe. In an emergency, these sites have been vital to getting out the word that your house is about to burn down, flood or be hit by a mass shooting.

@The NewsOwl I do like the MSNBC crawl at the top of CS.

@gemswinc I block ALL advertisers, ALL the time. Hoping to bring down MUSKRAT and bankrupt into releasing the site. Two prominent advertisers just left who found their ads up against NAZI accounts. Ratboy is a real POS.

Husk must have started to realize, folks are blocking advertisers. I was.

@TheNewsOwl Thanks for the info on out to capture news on this site. I am not that versatile on the use of this site..... yet. I have had it for awhile, I followed you early on but have failed to use it that much. Too many escape routes for former Twitterites.

@gemswinc I looked for you on FB. I have an ancient account there which I use for friends/family. Mostly I post my photos of wildlife/wildflowers in Colorado and answer questions.

@gemswinc I am working away on this site and Spoutible (run by Chris Bouzy out of NYC). He started BotSentinel. Spoutible has a lot of journos and Bouzy is very determined to make the site very desirable.

Without having to go out on a limb, these infernos are on a scale of the meteoric devistation that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. They are an historic tragedy, the likes of which I have never seen.

@gemswinc I follow 3 of the 5 you mentioned. Chris and Ukraine I didn't know about. I'm busy building Spoutible and CS. I'll probably use both of these sites more. Not doing THREADS. Zuck controls it thru Instagram. Automatic NO for me. Twitter is now demanding that we take selfies of ourselves to verify accounts. Doofus is pissed that ppl are NOT paying the $8.

Mutes are just not the same. Mutes are for sending trolls into fits of impotent rage when you don't reply to them.

That's all it's useful for.

I suppose has lawyers but I guess he's not listening to them.

Elon removing the block option on X/Twitter/whatever you call it - will just make more people come here.

Like probably 95% of people, I used blocks on Twitter to avoid seeing disagreeable content, and to protect my account from trolls and mass report groups.

In other words, it improved my user experience and safety.

I mean, a social media site where you can't curate your own experience, and MUST be subject to abuse?

Wow, that new Twitter CEO lady really is a doormat, isn't she?

Tuckertown boosted

On CounterSocial, you can edit your posts *and* block disagreeable users, all without paying a single dime.

@gemswinc I unlocked and re-locked my Twitter account today. Muskrat is getting ready to make it impossible to block other accounts which of course means we will be flooded with bots, trolls, porn, magat's etc. I follow journos and news sites which I am trying to build on Spoutible. CS doesn't seem to have the news sites. Will soon lock and leave Twit Sh*t.
