Even as @wsocial.eu onboards more and more users, they can’t seem to get them to talk to each other 🤐 This atrocious engagement rate (~9%) for users on the W PDS has been steady as a rock since day 1 (here you can see it in the daily totals and percentages). #WhosThereSocial

Absolute totals: Stacked bar chart titled “W Social — total users, 1 July to 21 August 2026”. Y-axis shows user count from 0 to just over 25,000, x-axis shows dates from late June to late August. Red area (non posting) and thin green band on top (users with 1+ post) both rise steadily from about 6,400 total users on 1 July to around 27,000 by 21 August, with a sharper jump in growth between 29 July and 3 August.100% stacked bar chart titled “W Social — total users by share, 1 July to 21 August 2026”. Y-axis shows share of total users from 0–100%, x-axis shows dates from late June to late August. Red area (non posting) holds steady at roughly 90–92% throughout; green area (users with 1+ post) fills the remaining 8–10%, both bands essentially flat across the full period.

How is this possible? #WSocial hosts 26k accounts but only 5.4k have provided ID verification (and thus can post). Of those, only 2450 people (as of this AM) have EVER published a SINGLE post or reply. By comparison, on Eurosky (26k accounts) EVERYONE can post. No ID required #WSocialPics

Far-right-welcoming @wsocial.eu has only 5.4k verified users and less than half of them have ever posted more than once. For a network that doesn’t want more bubbles, sure seems like a teeny wee bubble. How long before it pops? #tumbleWeedSocial

Lately I have noticed anti-immigrant rhetoric from #WSocial users - as well as posts containing hate speech that are NOT moderated. Thankfully I subscribe to @blackskyweb.xyz moderation and I want to thank @jdot.blacksky.team and his team for labeling one of the worst W accounts. #WSocialPics

In meinem Uber gab es heute ein Karaoke-Mikrofon. Ich war kurz davor den Fahrer zu fragen, ob er auch passend "Schnappi das Krokodil" spielt, denn das war hier in Taiwan um 2009/10 tatsaechlich ein kleiner Hit 😀 Moin zusammen und euch einen gesunden Start in diesen Freitag. Alles wird gut!

Eine Aufnahme aus dem Innenraum eines Autos (vermutlich eines Taxis), die auf die Rückseite des Vordersitzes gerichtet ist.

Zentrales Motiv: In der Sitztasche des schwarzen Vordersitzes steckt ein auffälliges, kabelloses Karaoke-Mikrofon in Roségold und Weiß mit integriertem Lautsprecher und Bedientasten.

Details & Umgebung: Links neben dem Mikrofon schauen zwei weiße Schraubverschlüsse von Wasserflaschen aus der Tasche hervor. Der Fußraum ist in lilafarbenes Ambientelicht getaucht, und rechts ist die Mittelkonsole mit den hinteren Lüftungsschlitzen erkennbar.

Niepokojący wątek o #Wsocial CEO tej platformy otwarcie zaprasza Alice Weidel (liderkę niemieckiego AFD) do Wsocial. W tym samym wątku wskazane są także inne niepokojące relacje i sympatie z prawicą.

I wish the Atmosphere had content warnings (like on the fediverse)... because I'd like to show you the limits of free speech absolutism and the kind of content that is allowed on #WSocial: blatant racism, xenophobia and transphobia. X vibes... but hey, it's "hosted in Europe" 😒

Posts by Anna Zeiter (W Social's CEO) about the company's approach to free speech and moderation. They read: "I strongly believe that everyone should be welcome on W, regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, skin colour, origin, religious or political beliefs, as long as they can verify they are human and behave toward others in a civil and lawful way. We don’t need W to become another echo chamber.

We need a platform where people with very different views can meet, listen to each other, challenge each other and disagree without immediately trying to cancel or silence one another. More dialogue. Less polarisation. ❤️ This is the kind of social network I want W to be. Happy to hear your views!"screenshot of a post by a W Social user that reads: "Don't vote for people who tell you men are women and jews are nazis"screenshot of a post by a W Social user that reads: "I've been anti BLM since the beginning and I'll always be anti BLM period"screenshot of a post by a W Social user where he shared a video by the "Institute of Remigration" (headed by a far-right leader) showcasing illegal immigrants entering Europe over time... with W Social CEO Anna Zeiter commenting "Wow! It's always so powerful if you visualize data... might be interesting for you @mikko" (a screenshot borrowed from Sascha Pallenberg's account)

ROSIE: “.. I'm back in the spotlight all thanks to President Ompa J. Loompa, who is watching us this evening from inside a catering cart. You know, I couldn't have done it without you, sweetie. You brought me back just like you did with fascism and the measles." $DIS

Reminder: currently you can’t log into W app using your existing ATProto account. You can’t migrate from/to W without help from a dev. You can create a W account and if you want to post, comment, message & interact on W app, you need to successfully scan your govt ID + face (screenshot).

Can I use W social without verifying my ID?

Just to let you know @london.gov.uk The CEO of @wsocial.eu openly supports and welcomes politicians from the far right. You joined their network and you have a chance to position yourself. You can easily switch to #eurosky without losing anything! mu.social/profile/pall...
