 @kissane I really appreciate all the work and thought you put into this. Thank you. [EDIT: I’m incorrect about the below. “libsoftiktokofficial” *is* them.] One thing I’ve been curious about lately — and I know this is a very small thing among a much larger point — is LibsOfTikTok actually on Threads? I can’t find them. I thought they left. “libsoftiktokofficial” seems like an imitator. 9 comments
@kissane Thank you! From what I can tell, they got annoyed at having their posts deleted by Meta and left in July. > “It’s clear that the biased censorship from big tech is still thriving everywhere except Elon’s Twitter,” Raichik told the DCNF. “I think I’ll stick with Twitter.” (From a site I don’t want to give traffic to.)  @jsit Oh god their Flounce stuck? I bet they weren’t getting traction. Thank you, I’ll poke around and drop in an edit tomorrow!  @kissane @jsit I made a serious effort to understand Threads's moderation in action but struck out. Their algorithm doesn't push abusive crap in my face and their search is so lousy I couldn't turn up relevant data. Doesn't address the core of your argument but it'd be useful to know what's going on over there and I don't.  @kissane @jsit my impression is that their account is still there but hasn’t posted since July, ditto with Gays against Groomers. They may have had some posts taken down but they didn’t get backed. Also there are reports of transphobic content being boosted into “for you” feeds, so they are there, and LoTT can direct them from offsite - it’s a very real theat, and I thought your advice on safety is excellent. Allow-list FTW! |

@jsit Ha! I didn’t even re-check. They’ve been on and off several times already and I’ve managed not to actually look at Threads much. If they’re gone for good, I’ll have to figure out what happened and make a note, I guess!
