Beginning to wonder if I am in a state of regression.
Hardly ever on X/Twitter
Can't really remember when I posted something on FB
Have less than 50 Insta posts
Now wonder if everything I am interested in online is AI generated or a complete fake?
Very sporadically post here...
Am I the only one?

Zuckerberg bows to Trump and introduces Musk-style 'Free speech' on Facebook, Instagram and Threads.
This should rightfully prompt a mass exodus from Threads to Bluesky.
This platform is the last remaining refuge from the tyranny of the authoritarian-tech oligarch alliance.

Solidarity and admiration.

Watch the reopening of #NotreDame yesterday. The building is simply stunning.
And most definitely a "work" event for many attendees.
Many thanks to all the firefighters and artisans for their efforts.

We could go on about how we welcome publishers, we don't demote links, we encourage independent developers to build apps and extensions on top of Bluesky's network.... but instead, we'll show you.

Very disappointed at a major retailer and a significant change to their recycling policy 😞. In the age of the #circulareconomy and #EPR this is a major step back

So much misinformation around today on who will be affected by changes to inheritance tax - and lobbyists pretending the data isn't clear to obfuscate. We have detailed data on estates so the truth is in fact very clear if you care to look 🧵

At the risk of being a bit rude, are there a French/ Dutch equivalent lists ?
Thanks Gaby. There are a host of others too. Will add more in the course of the week, including German journalists and commentators who post in English (plus, dare I say, those who don't). Time for everyone to dust off those language skills
More Berlin-watchers arriving daily (if you're interested in German politics, try also @annettedittert.bsky.social Guardian's @kateconnolly.bsky.social and @philipoltermann.bsky.social, you might also like @anneapplebaum.bsky.social, feel free to add more below)
