@mastodonusercount ...So, is that it then? Is Twitter over? :/
@mastodonusercount I was looking at the site, and it doesn;t seem to be down yet... But there are a lot of people going #RIPTwitter, so, things are clearly dire. :/
@Angle Not down yet, but apparently even fewer people than you'd think signed up for the 'Twitter 2.0' experience, and rumor is Elon Musk suspended all building access for all employees through to Monday, which should do well given the World Cup and the new Pokemon game are coming this weekend.

@mastodonusercount Wow! Almost 13,000 in the last hour—that’s incredible 🕊️
@mastodonusercount look at that spike, users have been coming in at 2-3k for the last week or 2 and now almost 6x in the last hour...
@mastodonusercount Pinch yourselves! This is real!
@mastodonusercount @kandimeep , looks like people are flooding to mastodon in the last hour. I guess things are going pretty bad on Twitter. Glad you made it in time!
@frostygoth @[email protected] is there a final countdown in unaware of 😱
@kandimeep Idk man! RIPTwitter is trending right now, and I guess lots of people are just over it. I guess Elon managed to literally remove all badge access from all employees, which locked people in the parking garages, locked them out of all buildings, and they had to call somebody they laid off to help them in fuck the situation. Not a good look I suppose.

@kandimeep This appears to be a good summary of what’s happened.
