The new icon for TwiX in iOS is “distressed,” and I find it makes me angry.

What’s next? An acid-wash version?

Yes, I'm one of the many people who are coming to Mastodon today. Fun 13 years in Twitter, now it's another app ruined by rich idiots.

So I'm a little confused. #ElMu has threatened to take #TheBirdApp into bankruptcy. That's all well and good for Twitter, but The Bird didn't borrow $44 Billion, ElMu did. How does taking Twitter into bankruptcy relieve ElMu of his financial responsibilities?
@waitnwallflower Respectfully, I don't agree at all. I think that there would have been a red wave, but for the numerous Republican blunders, one of which was #Roe.
Add in:
The revelations about the depth of the coup plot.
The confidential documents found are MaraLago.
The horrible "quality of candidates".
What terrifies me is that, in spite of all of this, it's still damn close. How could Herschel Walker come within a percentage point of Warnock?
Not long ago, I posted on #TheBirdApp (somewhat in jest) that we narrowly escaped a reality where it was a possibility where Walker was the Leader of The Senate and Marjorie Taylor Green the Speaker of The House (Not likely, but possible).
To reiterate, I believe #Roe was a real blunder on their part but in spite of multiple shots to the foot, we escaped a landslide Republican victory by a razor thin margin.
I just posted my final tweet on #TheBirdApp. It was mostly about #mastodon, talking about how my biggest concern was multiple servers, and how this turned out to be a non issue. It's my pinned tweet under this same username if anyone wants to have a look to tell me what I got wrong. (Of course, I'm not going to be able to edit it in any case, so meh 😄 )
I hardly ever check #TheBirdApp these days, but it appears to be down ATM.
@Jaden2 #MeToo (in a good way LOL). I get as much interaction here with 50 followers as I used to on #TheBirdApp with 10K.
Who could have predicted that #TheBirdApp would become the canary in the coal mine? But don't worry, it could be worse. #ElMu could be working on self driving cars, or self landing space ships.
@mrvapor Are you talking specifically about quote toots? Because I can prefer Mastodon to #TheBirdApp (by far) while also desiring the ability to quote toot.
@JadziaBenntley @estrapade I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. I know I was. I feel like the level of interaction here is far greater than on #TheBirdApp. After one week, with 30 followers, my level of interaction is similar to what it was over there with (and I had 10K followers) and the diversity and quality of conversations is amazing.
