Proton: “We’re consolidating our social media presence due to limited resources and no longer posting on Mastodon. Follow us on Reddit for the latest updates: Reddit - Dive into anything”. This is unexpected, as they had around 50k subscribers on Mastodon, and mirroring posts is super easy. I find that concerning that they stopped posting on open and decentralized platform, but keep posting on Meta and X.

    Whats the problem with creating one message and using the APIs for posting it on all social medai? With optional formatting per platform?

      Because these bridges are one way only.

      They will get spicy replies on niche platforms, not see them until they go viral in a bad way.

        Ohh that’s a fair point! Maybe there’s a way of fixing that by adding some “post your concerns over on reddit” or something similar, but idk.

          Even so. It’ll be an unmoderated by them section of conversation about their company. Probably a hard pass from any company with an HR department.
