A feud on Twitter highlights the perils of engaging on the platform and a growing tension among researchers and medical professionals.

tied of pulling AI news off twitter already
It is so damn refreshing seeing what is just “new” instead of what clickbait trained ai is pushing.
Anybody know where they’re going? I’ve seen some in mastodon, some in substack, some just on linkedin…but other than rss there is no easy way to follow a larger crowd of posters from different sources.
It’s all kind of new so nobody knows where the large majority will land until the dust settles. Probably another year or so. But Substack and Mastodon seem to be the most common from what I’ve seen.
Wikipedia is also making social platform too, called WT Social. It’s not federated unfortunately, but maybe that makes it easier to moderate

https://wts2.wt.social
on Twitter jimmy said that after they sort out their main focus which is some “trust based algorithm” system that I don’t really understand, they will add activitypub and all sorts of ways to make it more interconnected.
You may want to link to the beta because they’re directing people there instead and accounts made for the original site don’t work for it. wts2.wt.social
