One problem I'm having with Blue Sky is that half the time it looks like I'm diving into half a conversation not knowing what the fuck they're talking about. For example a thread on cybersecurity. Where can I find what he's referring to here?

I don't think health officials are being entirely honest when they refuse to say "this is the dumbest shit I've ever heard"; gotta build trust with honesty. I get why they keep describing it as misinformation, but I think they're failing to convey the depths of how dumb it is.

They have an unhelpful posting style in that respect - not threads, but multiple top level posts.

The new Mammoth app is a much simpler take on Mastodon
Mammoth is definitely one of the best-looking fediverse apps you’ll find.

Threads is now testing federation with the rest of the fediverse.
What this means in real world terms is that users on Mastodon and Threads will soon be able to follow each other. No more isolated islands which can't talk to each other.

Have you tried Magalodon? That's available for Android.

Advanced. Forthright. Signifficant.
Is that an alt-right fork of Megalodon?

I've tried Megalodon, and yeah it's the best Android client I've seen. But I haven't looked at Mastodon much for months - have found Bluesky a bit more useful. But I'm not posting on any of these platforms at the moment - I've become really reluctant to engage with social media, I just want to read newsy stuff. And sadly Twitter remains the only game in town for that sort of usage really - but I'm using it a lot less, have deleted app from my phone in annoyance at the whole Elon has a show with Andrew Tate thing.

I've done really well in keeping off Twitter btw because my username is apparently the name of some new type of crypto bullshit, and the sort of rubes who post on Twitter about cryptocurrency consistently @ me. It's just not tempting to even read my mentions.
I could probably rip them off something terrible but it wouldn't be worth it.

For anyone who doesn't follow this sort of nonsense, gab was launched with the aim of being twitter but with even more nazis. Back in the day when you could theoretically be banned from Twitter for being an unignorably blatant racist.

I don't subscribe to any 'isms.
I use FB a bit, and I gotta say I have "friends" on there just because they are people I know who talk boring shit.
There is a lot of mis/dis-information on Twitter, I just try to be discerning.

Don’t use Gab then. Bluesky is less problematic but unproven yet. It is invite only which is perhaps the reason why it’s not yet populated by awful people

Thanks I will check out bluesky. There's loads of twitter, gab, Facebook and other social media members with their own views, and if I don't resonate with them I ignore them.
