At last night's @KWVoIP meeting I was told my #Twitter feed is a disjoint series of half-conversations. Tried to explain that's because #Twitter doesn't federate with the !Fediverse, offered him a spot on sn.jonkman.ca. Got told that it wasn't *his* problem, so he shouldn't have to do extra work to see my feed. Didn't help when I pointed out that he was the one complaining, I'm perfectly satisfied being a disjoint half-wit on #Twitter.

@bobjonkman Also, I believe your tweets contain links to original conversations. Since it is often difficult enough to piece together complete conversations between #Twitter's own users (esp if more than two parties and you only follow one), with one or two clicks, he can see more than T allows.

I was blocked by a couple of Twitter users, and one user made her account private, thanks to usename collision. I thought it was useful to push all the notices to Twitter but it didn't convince any user to join the fediverse. Instead, my Twitter stream became a pain to follow and keep track of (if I looked at it from a regular Twitter user's view point.) So I decided not to push notices from here to there.

Indeed, it is his problem! NGOs, Parties, activists and independent scientists should use and promote alternative decentralized social networks instead of making the commercial Twitter service increasingly indispensable. What's emancipatory about Twitter where timeline is manipulated, where you can lose your account due to joint efforts of trolls?
