Until now I hadn’t appreciated that were very serious structural problems at Twitter. I thought Elon would make it messy, but it would robustly continue. This below, however, is starting to make me much more concerned.

I came across to Mastodon out of curiosity, fun, sense of opportunity & respect for the concept. Now I’m thinking it’s a vital hedge for us all against serious Twitter risks, including collapse.

@mikegalsworthy I left due to the security concerns highlighted here as well as the blue tick carnage & other Musk nonsense. Not that I'll be missed, not exactly a prolific or noted poster with my 96 followers, but I will miss the 500-odd interesting & informative accounts I followed. Hoping I can build back up here - bit fiddly to step up, but so far seems nicer & I like the longer character limit.
