Nick @ The Linux ExperimentWatching the crazy right wing extremists trying to tell me that Mastodon has been built to “save the blue checkmarks from Elon’s Twitter so they can keep hating free speech in their own bubble” is hilarious.
Chris Pirillo@thelinuxEXP ...weren't (aren't?) their not-Twitter platforms based upon Mastodon?
@ChrisPirillo Yeah, AFAIK, Truth social and Gab are both based on Mastodon

@thelinuxEXP @ChrisPirillo yeah. They are both forks of Mastodon. In fact, the Gab guy (whatever his name is) has talked about it openly.
