I'm leaving Twitter (at least for now). You're not “fighting a good” fight on #ElonMusk's Twitter. He OWNS it. You are only creating engagement that lifts usage data & ad revenue. Want to fight a good fight? Join me on Mastodon: @augieray@mastodon.social https://t.co/Bl8h1TbSxV

Making a rare post to point out that if you're paying for a blue check, buying ads on X, or even just offering content that drives ad views, you're helping Elon Musk to spread dangerous election disinformation. Mastodon, Bluesky, threads and other platforms welcome you.

My birthday was awesome. Thank you for asking. Now it's time for a NEW BEANCAST! This week we have Ian Baer, @augieray and @janelldtownsend debating why OpenAI created a new search engine, whether the Apple ad was all that bad and much more! https://t.co/l2uPweXs6J

Companies that continue to advertise on Twitter/ @X are sponsoring antisemitism. It is apparent to me that @elonmusk tweeting against @ADL and @JGreenblattADL is targeting them for harassment.
@DrKnowItAll16 @alx Based on what we’ve heard from advertisers, ADL seems to be responsible for most of our revenue loss. Giving them maximum benefit of the doubt, I don’t see any scenario where they’re responsible for less than 10% of the value destruction, so ~$4 billion. Document discovery of

Just back to Twitter to note that the number of people complaining about Musk and whining about Twitter performance on Twitter while creating the impressions and engagement that drives Twitter's ad revenue is just wild. Mastodon exists. Come join us.

I gave up 15 years here. You can, too. Every tweet is a donation to Musk. You know what he is and what he's doing. He gave Michael Flynn his account back on the anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection. Come join me on Mastodon where I get 10x the engagement I ever had on Twitter.

Many people complain about Elon Musk on Elon Musk's platform creating engagement that Elon Musk uses to earn ad revenue. Meanwhile, I'm finding Mastodon a joy, with high-quality engagement. It's not that big an adjustment--come join us. (And now, I'll stop tweeting, again.)

I had a thread of 31 tweets with 30 studies summarized, but Twitter choked. And I'll be damned if I spend that time recreating it on Musk's platform. Not sure why people aren't trying out Mastodon, but if you're interested, here's the thread:

My spreadsheet of #COVID19 studies showing longer-term damage to the body has grown to 100 studies. COVID can attack many parts of the body, remain present in the body, increase risks of serious disorders, and increase risk of death and disability. https://t.co/Vf127PNGwX (1/31)

Stop complaining Mastodon is difficult. You probably found Twitter confusing at first, also. It's not that different, and while there's a learning a curve, you won't climb it if you don't give it any time.

In Ireland today, you are more at risk of getting seriously ill (or making someone seriously ill) this holiday than last. I just left St. Stephen's Green Mall where my wife & I were two of just four out of thousands I saw in the mall and Grafton Street. Please be safe. #WearAMask

12/16/22: Positive rate: 18.2% 12/16/21: 14.1% 12/16/20: 2.9% COVID hospitalizations are 25% HIGHER this year than last. The positive rate of testing is 29% higher now than in 2021. There's MORE #COVID19 and it's putting more in the hospital. 2/3

I hope I can return someday, but I think this wonderful, amazing platform will just degrade further into misinformation, abuse & tech issues. Don't be a part of the problem. You don't fight Musk by creating content, engagement & ad revenue on his platform. You fight by leaving.
