@nprofile…asyc @nprofile…lwgl Mastodon's characteristics demand compromise from its users. Decentralisation comes with the inconvenience of picking a server, missing replies etc. No algorithm means you have to curate your own feed from scratch. Anti-abuse mindset means no quoting and dodgy search.
A lot of people don't value those principles and will simply look for a Twitter replacement, and that's Bluesky. Everything else is edge cases imo; worthy concerns, but not reasons Masto won't "win".

@npub1afz…wdvg What an absolute mess. Sounds like Dr Dominique Thompson has been watching too much GB News.

@npub1afz…wdvg Does that mean you're not going to post for 55 years?

@npub12mc…xdp7 @npub1g0t…tvm4 It seems one third apathetic, one third progressive, and one third chaotic neutral/evil.
Remember 20-ish years ago, when the UK narrative was of concern that politics was becoming irrelevant, and people were disengaging because Tory/Lib/Lab were all milquetoast centrists? Hard not to see social media manipulation as a significant factor in the radicalism that's happened since.

@npub1afz…wdvg I didn't know they still did 11+ tests - apparently it's an English thing. I looked at some sample questions and... I genuinely have no idea how to answer this question or what it would tell you about the student.
I have two science degrees.

@npub1afz…wdvg A True Mastodonian wouldn't know Musk was tweeting incessantly. *raises eyebrow, archly*
Meanwhile, "compete on three" is great! 💚

@npub19uy…0n85 I have to link to the well-known "Don't Be a Sucker" film, also from 1945. Its description of the way fascism enters society remains embarrassingly enduring.

@npub1afz…wdvg The hip-hop thing is questionable, but *waiting and watching you to make sure you look it up*? I'd be looking for quick exit routes...😬

@npub1afz…wdvg We can mock (and we will!), but this line of thinking is still a "legitimate" part of "the trans debate".

Excuse my repetition; I've asked this before but nobody has ever come up with anything.
So... in Scotland we get various benefits that aren't offered in England. Free elderly care and no uni tuition fees are the big ones, but also free prescriptions, free hospital parking, baby box etc.
The funding ScotGov receives for these devolved areas is calculated to be exactly equivalent to UKGov's spending. So my question is this: what does England get instead of these things that Scotland doesn't?

@npub1afz…wdvg Just for accuracy, it's not illegal immigrants they want to deport, it's asylum seekers. Crossing on a boat and claiming asylum when you reach land is perfectly legal.
