The whole idea of the town square is that it belongs to the town. No one should be able to buy it. And honestly, they can’t.

Twitter isn’t really the town square, any more than Facebook is or MySpace was.

We are the town square. It goes where we go. No one can buy that.

@slack2thefuture Twitter is literally a colosseum with gladiators and spectators. I saw a thread this morning suggesting that there shouldn't be any moderation on here. If we encounter an instance that allows any behaviour we wouldn't allow in our communities or workplaces - we can just block the instance entirely. This decentralized structure of social media gives you choice about the community you want to "live" and participate in.
