If you’re wondering about Mastodon’s impact, Twitter is now automatically marking links to mastodon as “sensitive” (aka dangerous) and forcing users who get them to “appeal” the claim. In case Elon didn’t seem desperate enough for you already…
@joshuatopolsky It’s not just links to Mastodon. It happened to me just using the word mastodon in another context. My link was actually to a story about mastodon DNA being sequenced at the MIT Technology Review

@joshuatopolsky @TimH

Had to test this out myself and lol!!!!

@PhilipMartin @joshuatopolsky @TimH

Just went to check (00.12 UK time) and sure enough:

@TimH @ClaireCopperman @joshuatopolsky

Haha! Thanks for checking! I haven’t gone to The Fowl Place today to see if they responded to my appeal. They didn’t suspend me over my insult to Dear Leader Elmo either, though, so I guess, much like the Black Knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, we’ll call it a draw?

@PhilipMartin @TimH @joshuatopolsky
Yeah, I can't be bothered to appeal. It's funnier with the warning!
