Someone got out the wrong side of bed?

I’m also in the process of moving from Twitter to Mastodon, albeit I have very few followers on either. As such, I found it both interesting and useful. I imagine he does want engagement and wants to get it from Mastodon instead of Twitter.

I'm not even mad, it's just funny.

It's just another salvo in the culture war - from this point of view, a management change in a major SM platform is pretty significant, especially when that platform was openly biased in one direction. So you have the usual noise, which has absolutely nothing to do with Twitter as a product or company.

It's just some dude's blog. You chose to read it. Entering into someone's personal newsletter and expecting them to NOT write about themselves is a weird thing. Maybe the egocentrism is not on _that_ side of the equation hm.

keep in mind author is Simon Willison, who cocreated Django and whose blog goes back to 2002.

Twitter is dead dude.

It is Friendster.

It is MySpace.

You just don't realise it yet.

(Disclaimer I have a Twitter account that I use to post stuff)
