i think most people just don’t care

i agree - so the question is, how do we make them care?

i’ve been trying - and seemingly failing - to make people care for awhile. but i’ll do my best to keep trying.

i was banned from reddit for months… maybe close to a year? it seems pretty easy to set off their ban hammer.

mark and the gang built tools to scrape you other account back in the day an add the data to facebook. made it easy to switch. they also made it close to impossible to do the same to facebook. but it would require something like that to get people on to something else.

i was thinking that - and apparently fedibook does allow you to import all your facebook posts :)

wafrn allows bluesky imports… i imagine with activitypub, hypothetically some stuff from threads could be imported, but i don’t know for sure.

pixelfed does allow you to import your instagram account

as for the government stuff… yeah. don’t like it.

like your username btw

thanks! when new sites i’m interested in pop up, i like to try to get a silly username related to the site name sometimes, although i think piefed might’ve been around for a year before my username? but i kept seeing it mentioned on reddit around the time i joined and i’d never heard of it before, so i assumed it was new (although it is still pretty new in the grand scheme of things, i think :))
