While I’m glad mastodon (especially #MedMastodon and #DisabilityMastodon ) exists, this piece by @ImaniBarbarin outlines exactly what I and many other disabled and chronically ill people feel about the end of Twitter. The platform has been our best or only connection to the rest of our community; a place of invaluable knowledge, support, and advocacy.

I don’t want to leave the platform and I feel like I am mourning it in real time.

It's time for a consortium of media outlets and stars to pony up some bucks every month to add to the paid devs. Treat Mastodon like Linux.
