Musk makes Mastodon move upward

But the tumult at Twitter has caused Mastodon to see a sudden surge of mainstream interest. Eugen Rochko, its twenty-nine-year-old creator, told me that in the past month Mastodon has grown from three hundred thousand monthly active users to nearly two million. On a recent video chat, he looked haggard and solemn, like a medical resident on overnight rotation. To keep up with Mastodon’s influx, he’s been working fourteen-hour days

There have been many alternatives offered to Facebook and Twitter. It will be interesting to see if any replace them.

Personally I hate hanging around in echo chambers.

HA, going to sign up for Mastadon? Or Tribe Social?

NOPE, HA is only on MMT....Nextdoor here in Montrose ticked me off (NOT the mods,they were cool)....just before Halloween I posted Video 'THRILLER' the classic of all times by MJ....one of the MODS commented
how many report posts they received....(it was not well received)....so-o I posted SMOOTH CRIMINAL by MJ AND STATED IT WAS DEDICATED TO AN EX POTUS.....and to report that. Then i requested to be deleted from the board....narrow minded,SMALL in intellect and smug......rural community.mindset. I then finished up my commentary to the community.... PARACHUTES AND MINDS ONLY FUNCTION WHEN OPEN

social media IS the equivalent of "death by a thousand pecks".....NOT willing to be pecked to death.

Elon Musk offers amnesty to banned accounts on Twitter. This will make next week very interesting. Will returning accounts try to be good since they have received a second chance? Or will they believe that Musk will let them get away with stuff Jack didn't?
