The social internet — for science! I'm super excited to see @aster.id launching. It's an Atmosphere service provider (like @eurosky.social) for researchers, hosted by your friends at the @modalfoundation.eurosky.social. Why does it matter? Thread time! 🧵

Hugely excited that this now sees the light of day. Aster will not only serve science and scientists, it will help deliver #trust signals to online communities.

The lie here is suggesting that "9% of @bsky.app users are active daily" is the same measurement as "9% of @wsocial.eu users have ever posted more than once". #Wsocial 's actual DAU is less than 1%. This is how propaganda works. Tell little lies often enough and eventually it sounds like truth.

I'm no SEO expert. Why, when I googled "wsocial is a european truth social leaflet prendergast" (lmgtfy.com?q=wsocial+is...) to write the post below, @renderg.host's post from *June* didn't appear in pages 1-10 of SERP? Not referenced in the AI summary, either.

Search engine result page 1 for the search mentioned in the post.

I am so looking forward to digging into this. Tools & services to help web builders integrate their sites onto the atmosphere could turn the entire web into an Atmospheric recruitment service...

Well, how I understand eIDAS, is that you own the wallet on your phone. You ask the gov to put proof in your wallet that you are 18+: just yes/no. Then you can share that proof with your goat porn site, proving to them you are 18+. In that case, the government doesn't know about the goat porn.

I am trans and I use AI. I have received numerous death, rape, and kys threats on Bluesky. Every time it has been from an anti-AI activist. The anti-AI crowd is rotten and wouldn't act this way if they actually cared about trans safety. I am sick of my identity being used to defend this behavior.

Facebook directly enabled the Rohingya genocide. Every executive involved in running the company today chose to work at a company that directly enabled those deaths. Compared to that, it is _nothing_ for their products to cause your children harm. Billions for a settlement is a pittance.
