Twitter has banned sharing links to any of competing “social media platforms” (Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, etc). They also ban links to 3rd party link aggregators like Linktree. Even mentioning your handle can get you permanently suspended. help.twitter.com/en/rules-an…

As the web returns to its decentralized nature, we should ALL maintain our own Linktree-style repositories on our OWN sites so others can find us. For example, you can easily find all of my competing social media profiles via this (not 3rd party) link docpop.org/about/

Under pressure from ̶h̶u̶n̶d̶r̶e̶d̶s̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶a̶c̶t̶i̶v̶i̶s̶t̶ ̶e̶m̶p̶l̶o̶y̶e̶e̶s̶ @elonmusk, Twitter deplatformed dozens of journalists , critics, and competitors (like @joinmastodon) today, even though they didn’t violate the rules. Here's a thread of some of them:
Journalists who cover Elon Musk have been suspended on Twitter tonight: @Donie O'Sullivan from CNN, Aaron Rupar and the Washington Post's @drewharwell. Rupar tells me he has "no idea" why it happened.

I've begun sunsetting this twitter account. I'll leave my existing posts up, but I've completely stopped checking this site. I might still post occasional updates (announcements, work stuff, etc) here, but not checking timeline/replies. I'm so much happier on Mastodon.

Cleaning UTM codes from URLs and typing out "=butts" used to be a tedious process. Now I have a Chrome extension that does all of that with the click of a button! chrome.google.com/webstore/d…
Replying to @SamKap
Same energy, but I always update the referral link to include a cheeky message.

Before sharing a URL with friends, I manually remove any UTM codes/tracking info and replace them with "=butts". This has been a tedious process for years, but no longer!!! BUTTER is a new Chrome extension that removes that crap for you! Get it here: butterurls.com/

I hung out with P Nosa a bit yesterday. You can find him and his solar powered sewing machine on Valencia Street most weekends. He is selling his "free motion embroidered" patches or you can request a custom order. instagram.com/pnosa/

Here's an interview I shot with P Nosa in 2010 where he explains the challenges he faced when designing his solar powered sewing cart. That's the same cart he's using today. piped.video/4jVaqzlF8OA

I’m having a great time at @kidkoala’s “Music To Draw To” event in @isotopecomics. I snapped this photo on the way here and used it as an inspiration for one of my #SidewalkFriends drawings.

There are many alternatives, but I think Mastodon is the best place to build your new home on. It has a strong foundation, a focus on accessibility, and friendly neighbors. joinmastodon.org/

With Mastodon, you don't need to pay 8 dollars a month to see half the ads. Because we don't allow them. At all. 🤯 joinmastodon.org/

Here's how to turn off those super-annoying notification sounds when using #Mastodon in your web browser.

“I believe that ⁦@NFTtheft⁩ had a huge impact on the conversation around NFTs. We proved they weren't working as intended.” You sure did. Thanks so much for all you did in raising awareness & piercing the hype around NFT’s. Y’all were trailblazers. mastodon.social/@docpop/1093…

Thank you to everyone who has worked at Twitter in the 15 1/2 years I've been on here for keeping it going, 💙 I am sorry for all of you who have gone through the last few weeks.
