I don't think Mastodon or the fediverse has ever received this much attention before. It's a great opportunity for people to finally see that social media can be done differently, that it can be a protocol not under control of any single company.

@Gargron something that would be useful is a way to transfer twitter followers to this platform in an easier way.
Similar to how you can add phone contacts to Facebook.

@Gargron people will need a new home after Twitter has shut off the lights.

@Gargron I donโ€™t think that casual users are interested is such details. They just want their social media app to work. They will stay with Mastodon if they consider it cool.

@Gargron The recent #TwitterMigration and the controversial decisions of #ElonMusk at #Twitter makes people more and more realise there is need to be a more open platform to reach for each other exploring new topics and threads. The #fediverse concept is a real gamechanger - I think so - to have smaller communities but interconnected with each other.

@Gargron yep. It's fantastic. I spent a lot of time and money building something similar as I find Mastodon to be too complicated for someone like my 86 year old mother.

My partially abandoned project: github.com/KotoLLC/peacenik

With the influx of new users to Mastodon there will surely be usability improvements. It's an awesome moment for the project and for tech in general.

@Gargron As someone who has watched the fediverse from afar for years but who has mostly ignored it, it definitely feels refreshing

@gargron to further support the idea you should really shut down new registrations before crossing the 1 million accounts line. There are already a bunch of people and instances blocking mastodon.social for scrapping the idea of a decentralized network and the numbers support that to a degree.

@Gargron Back to the '90s! But with the nice bells and whistles from 2000s.

@Gargron Right. In that case, i'm actually glad Musk purchased that damn bird, cause otherwise i would've probably never experienced this nice place here. So, i should thank him, i guess.๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ‘Œ
