Well, if you’re that curious, there is a book about it. The Wikipedia article goes into some detail about what the systems were used for.

They didn’t just truck people into the camps and immediately kill them, so they had to at least track capacity.

There isn’t a workers’ party, either. The US is one of the few industrialized nations that doesn’t have one.

There are actual statistics in this article, unlike these which I think you made up.

You sound like those people saying that COVID was no big deal because “more people die in auto accidents”. How many people have to be affected before you deem it newsworthy?

Bluesky gives you the option to choose an instance, too.

Mastodon has one big, official node, too, though: joinmastodon.com.

How is it easier to use?

What makes you think they didn’t feed them?

I think the average person understands how to use email.

Mastodon is just too confusing for the average person

You’re mistaking motivation for ability. If you understand email, you can understand Mastodon.

There were Nazis on X for years before this. They’re leaving because Trump won.

Because you hate Palestine?

They think that the problem is Musk, because he’s the proximate cause. You can’t expect people who are uneducated about this stuff to make a systemic analysis, research decentralized alternatives, and then decide to go to Mastodon or whatever.

If they were that educated on the issue, they would’ve left X a long time ago.

We don’t know how many of those are bots.

They said they have everything.

Sadly, I think this is a much older, non-AI person who thinks that they’re funny.

My favorite part of this:

…Collins said that “part of the reason we did bought InfoWars is because people on Bluesky told us it would be funny to buy InfoWars” adding that “those people were right” this “is the funniest thing that has ever happened”.

I thought you could federate with Bluesky, too.

Choice is a good thing, though.

I’ll use Bluesky before I use Threads. I don’t want to get sucked further into the Zuckerborg.
