Mastodon Has Officially Retired the 'Toot,' Its Version of the Tweet

Not everyone is pleased with the decision to change "toot" to "publish," but many third-party apps are continuing to use the original term for posts anyway.

@thesiswhisperer Thanks for sharing. My favorite line:

One user wrote: “It is the most shattering experience of a young person’s life when one morning they awake and quite reasonably say to themself: ‘I shall never toot again.’ When that moment comes, one’s ambition ceases.”

@thesiswhisperer @morgantaschuk mine too, the quality of discourse in here is next level 😂
@thesiswhisperer listen I think it’s for the best. You liked that term way too much.
