We’re still waiting for Bezos to come here and get a massive speeding ticket to fix our budget for the next decade

The “line cook” is fucking jacked tho

Mastodon has protocol level issues that prevent it from being fully mainstream though.

As long as people move out of Twitter, I count it as a win. Especially when we get official government stuff out of there - which won’t happen for the US, but the rest of us have a chance

Twitter started dying when they closed the API

Bluesky’s is perfectly operational

You can also replace the content, depending on how their system is done.

Also we do have GDPR and CPPA if you want to go nuclear on your data

It’s not for the companies, it’s for the keyboard warriors looking for dirt when they get angry.

Case in point: James Gunn getting fired because of decade old tweets
