Please donate. It's money well spent and an investment in preserving your mental health. I donate monthly.

I've donated and encourage everyone else to do so, too.

I give monthly. Here's a thought (you may already be doing this) - can you formally invite the Globe-Gazette and others you mentioned to open accounts on Spoutible?

I assumed the plan was to incorporate advertising when we reached a sellable scale. That's what I would do....

Here's what their tweet said: "It took 3 days, 3 appeals, hundreds of retweets, a senator and a congresswoman, but Twitter noted a mistake had led to our suspension, and today is back to normal! Supporting local journalism is more important than ever, and we're so grateful for you and your support!"

And now I'm going to ask them to come over here to Spoutible.

Twitter seems to be making a lot of accidental bans lately.

In addition to the dangerous disinformation threatening democracy on Twitter, there are a LOT of dangerous conspiracies about Covid and vaccinations. As new mutations evolve, we could be in more trouble there.

I saw this earlier and am wondering if they still haven't clearly stated the reason for the suspension? Elmo's support for RW trolls and suspension of journalists is pretty chilling.

Just because they don't like Space Karen boots. Pathetic.

Twitter is making itself increasingly irrelevant--the sooner Twitter is defunct under the ownership of Elon Musk, the better it is for democracy and society. And yes, I'll give $5 to support Spoutible.

Now would be a good day to download your Twitter data.
You just KNOW Elmo is tracking download requests since most people do that prior to deleting Twitter.

Putin told Musk to do it? Isn’t that what dictators do? It makes platforms like Spoutible even more important.

I will be donating again as soon as I am able. Oh, and my daughter just quit twitter when I told her I had and I hope she comes on over to Spoutible.

Not surprising behavior in the least, for the bird app. The good news is twitter is still rapidly falling into irretrievable debt, not paying its bills and having work interruptions one after another. It might not even be around in a year or so.

It has been reinstated but they lost all of their followers

It takes time for the count to return to normal after a suspension
But if you look they're there

I love Spoutible.
I donated $20.84 to Spoutible last week.
Disinformation on social media platforms might have been a factor in Republicans winning back the House last year.
Musk's Twitter 2.0 embraces hate speech, dangerous conspiracy theories. & might be deemphasizing resisters & Democrats
