At MacStories, we won't stand for Meta's dehumanizing, harmful moderation practices.
Fuck them and everyone who builds their business upon a semblance of "free speech" to ostracize minorities and all kinds of humans.
For this reason, we're leaving Threads and Instagram behind.
You can read about our decision here, and find some links to support different organizations today: https://www.macstories.net/stories/macstories-wont-stand-for-metas-dehumanizing-and-harmful-moderation-policies/
I just wanted to say that I'm so incredibly thankful for the *hundreds* of encouraging messages we've gotten from readers – old and new – regarding our decision to take MacStories off Meta platforms.
I'm even more grateful to see people signing up for the @club or upgrading their subscriptions to support us. Now more than ever, an independent site like @macstories depends on its readers to keep growing after 16 years.
Thank you.
