Help #SaveSocial today by staying off Big Tech social platforms. Let’s pause and stop posting, liking and swiping for a day – to save the democratic power of the internet. Because WE are social media #SaveSocialDay #SocialMedia https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreieqfpo4mesxkrlpar7y46gwavjpwnlyhcoedfkmgum4kpavg7u3aq

Tomorrow is #PressFreedomDay but press freedom is limited and controlled by Big Tech social networks. That's why Save Social are organising an alternative - #SaveSocialDay For a day, stay silent on Big Tech platforms to remind them that WE are social media. #SocialMedia #BigTech https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreidpbwy7wphc2e4d4nkrqcwefhpc6gf6wtlhcmacyx3b7h74u74fgm

We think social media should be built on a community-first structure 🏗️ Social media should be about finding your people, sharing experiences, and bringing together community. We reject the idea that social media should be built on profit-first foundations. #SocialMedia #SocialWeb

We're still working to shake people and organisations free from the hold Big Tech has imposed on them. We don't plan on stopping anytime soon. If you want to help us, start simple. Share word of the open social web with the people around you! Together, we can rethink social media. #SocialMedia

We're inviting social media pioneers to join the #OpenSocialWeb with [Channel.org](
