Former Bob Jonkman -- Please use the new server at https://gs.jonkman.ca (bobjonkmanformer@sn.jonkman.ca)'s status on Friday, 27-Jan-2017 19:37:08 UTC Former Bob Jonkman -- Please use the new server at https://gs.jonkman.ca @silverwizard I don't worry about reshares to !Twitter any more than I worry about any other content that goes over the #Twitterbridge. My Twitter followers are already getting only a half side of conversations I have in the Fediverse, and name collisions between Twitterati and !Federati has caused several people on Twitter to block me. For one person who complained about this I set up a Fediverse account so he could participate fully, but he's never made use of it (too much effort?). I had considered shutting down my Twitterbridge to stop annoying those Twitter users, but since they have their own means to deal with it (join the Fediverse or block me) I no longer worry about it. I have some concerns about still using a proprietary, non-FAIF service like Twitter, but Twitter does provide me some niche benefit that (so far) outweighs my FAIF discomfort. -

If someone else directly hosts your important content (i.e., their server and domain), you're vulnerable to their changes and interpretations.
