Fuck corporate social media
Seriously threads and bluesky are false promises, the rest of the fediverse might grow and innovate slowly but it is genuine growth on genuinely community owned platforms.
Bluesky and threads are visions of the past wearing the future's clothes. They are investor backed and fundamentally and irrevocably for profit ventures.
Do not be seduced into wasting your time in stuck in the past, this is a perfect reminder we already know where it will end no matter what their precariously employed devs say.

Thanks followed.
Fuck Zuck.
And yet: https://mastodon.social/@elonjet is still up :)
Obligatory: https://grndcntrl.net/
Chad using Mastadon is just a cherry
Given the risk of physical harm to individuals
Their private security details aren't enough?
Not to mention the data is publicly accessible.
Those rich fuckers can fly commercial like the rest of us. Upgrade to first and business class and suck it up.
I just took an 80min flight recently. For shits I looked at the first class upgrade option. It cost three times as much as my coach ticket. I hate flying, and I think airplanes are cramped and very uncomfortable, but I can't imagine choosing to have a tiny bit bigger seat for an 80min flight over buying two other people tickets or supporting a charity or just buying extra drugs that week. The amount of disposable income or pathological obsession with status to flagrantly make the choice to buy a first class ticket astounds me.
Free food and drinks (and I mean real beer and mid tier liquor, and actual food not snacks) in a much much nicer lounge is worth its weight in gold if you fly a lot of have a long layover. If you're flying 15000 miles a year those upgrades become much cheaper (like more than 50% off) on many flights.
I'd have to guess a lot of the time is companies eating the cost for their people to fly first class rather then it being common for a rando looking to take a flight booking first class
Yup. Companies have many times the money a single person does, so they'll shell out for it. Usually it's managers and execs who get upgrades, and the regular workers who get economy.
I wonder what a flight with Taylor Swift onboard would look like.
Extra hassle for flight attendants? The taxpayer would probably pay a couple bucks for a cop at departing and arriving terminals.
Tour buses seem reasonable.
You're a bootlicker if you're on threads, simple as
God damn... Somebody out doing me on calling this pathological behavior

Now I really want to know where all of these people are going that they have to hide it from the rest of the world.
the accounts should be used to inform where the tracking information is collected to instead of being the sole container for it. Never trust that anything you do is safe on corporate servers
Damn look at these parasites demanding privacy!
Hmmmm
Are there any communities on Lemmy that do anything similar?
Not lemmy (unless it does support it now?). But from a (k/m)bin instance you can access the mastadon account @elonjet which does the same as the original twitter elonjet.
Any client that can interpret Mastodon data can access it. I don't believe Lemmy yet has the ability to follow individual users in that way.
I think !billionaire@lemmy.ca can be used for this purpose even though it’s currently just to complain about them. That would be a better utilization
I mean... SAM would track them better than any account!
