UPDATED 18 NOVEMBER 2024
With Twitter X circling ever closer to the plughole, it's time to have a microblogging alternative. In fact, I already set one up at Mastodon back in November, and spent a bit of time making it comfortable. But the social media landscape has fragmented since then and everyone is fleeing in all directions. There's no longer any one place to go. And so, being as extremely online and extremely indecisive as I am (and also because my day job is in communications), I've settled on… pretty much all of them! So here's where you can find me, in descending order of likelihood:
Twitter/X: @Airminded(no, I will be deleting this)- Bluesky Social: @airminded.org (now the best alternative)
- Mastodon: @Airminded@hcommons.social (I check here often)
I'm also on the following, but really just very barely:
- Threads: @airminded
Post News: @airminded(dead)Spoutible: @Airminded(dead)
Due to Twitter/X's API changes, my Trove bots now only run on Mastodon and Bluesky:
- Mastodon:
@TroveAirBot@botsin.space, @TroveAirRaidBot@botsin.space, and @TroveUFOBot@botsin.space.org@TroveAirBot@mas.to, @TroveAirRaidBot@mas.to, and @TroveUFOBot@mas.to - Bluesky: @troveairbot.airminded.org, @troveairraidbot.airminded.org, and @troveufobot.airminded.org
And my AI art accounts are also only on Mastodon and Bluesky now:
- T
witter/X: @AirmindedAI(I'll be deleting this too) - Mastodon: @AirmindedAI@sigmoid.social and @TTAships@sigmoid.social
- Bluesky: @airmindedai.airminded.org and @ttaships.airminded.org
For the benefit of wanderers, I'll keep this post pinned updated on Airminded (which is older than Twitter, and now looks likely to outlast it, too).
See you out there... somewhere!
