Big thanks to @henshaw for breaking this story.

Also, did you manage to get any Pixelfed or Peertube accounts to work with Buffer?

Buffer adding Mastodon is just another example of the momentum that the Fediverse now has amongst developers -- and how this is going to push adoption forward.

This is the *real* story about Mastodon's growth during the past three months.

Yes, the first wave of Fediverse adoption came from people looking for a Twitter replacement.

But the next wave of adoption is going to come from an ecosystem of apps.

Why?

Because some of those Twitter migrants were developers.

And once they played around with the code, they all remembered how nice it is to build something on an open protocol.
