On Thursday, intense fighting between Ethiopian government forces & Tigrayan rebels broke out.

A brutal civil war between these factions killed hundreds of thousands from 2020 to 2022. Implementing a ceasefire agreed to in November 2022 has been complex. It has led to a breakdown in relations and now outright clashes.

The issue this time...the war could coalesce with the one in Sudan, with Tigrayan forces allied with the Sudanese government, and Ethiopia with the RSF.

RE: mastodon.social/@STPo/11597787

Excusez-moi?! I'm still on Mastodon, still working on Mastodon--I love it here. Seems like the journalist has now removed the paragraph from the article, but has not published a retraction, and the false statement is still in the audio version. Where did they get this idea from?

RE: mamot.fr/@imacrea/115977976198

Current status: fuming with rage at the SHEER INEPTITUDE of the French press in covering W Social and Mastodon.

In the article linked below "journalist" François Saltiel wrote that @GargronEugen Rochko "quit his own network [Mastodon] because he was fed up with the behavior of certain users."

Eugen referred to deleting his bridge to Bluesky, not quitting Mastodon FFS.

You should know Mr. Saltier simply rehashed W Social's press release and failed to mention it is a fork of Bluesky...

"Journalism" today

Update: Radio France removed the last paragraph in the piece that claimed " @GargronEugen Rochko had quit his own social network [Mastodon] because he was fed up the behavior of certain users."

But this preposterous lie is still in their radio broadcast. The clip has been up for 10 HOURS now.

Maybe @Mastodon could use this as leverage to set the record straight and get some exposure with French listeners.

I'm this close to getting my LinkedIn account out of hibernation to write to Radio France about it
