There are people on Twitter bitching about Elon Musk buying the platform and then sending him tweets basically baiting him. Is that so they can come to the Fediverse and cry "See He banned me!"? I don't get it? Poke a dog with a stick and it'll bite you. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

It's funny how some people don't realize that simple thing and that TW or FB is not theirs, they only can play there because the owners let them.

Oh god, welcome to my world. I've spent over 20 years trying to explain to people that ultimately, "They don't own it", especially when it came to the likes of Ubuntu, etc. Even, for argument's sake, some of the Mastodon instances. They're still someone's server (Unless, like me, you host your own), so they could kick you off at any time.

I always had pretty clear that. Identi.ca, quitter.se and now on sdf.org I'm on someone's computer and have to behave according to their rules and I depend on them.

Ah, but you are intelligent and don't really strike me as a 'herd mentality' type person whereby you're willing to stifle your own thoughts to fit in with the group hugs. I see it so often; people use something for a year or two and then convince themselves and others that purely by usage and contribution, they suddenly firmly believe it's theirs. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

Also some(most) people don't know how the internet works , its magic. I've seen it with my bosses, telling them something could and was going to happen, them ' no it can't' and then happening. Obviously they were right and something strange happened , twice , thrice and then we changed as I said and stopped happening. Internet like god works in mysterious ways.

You know, I literally kinda said that a couple of hours ago. I gave someone a URL to copy-n-paste and send to someone else, and they responded with, "I dunno how to do that?" I was like, "So you're on the web every day posting pictures and crap, and yet you don't know how to copy and paste a URL? Are you winding me up?"
