davekarpfHow would we know that Twitter has become a ghost town?
I think it’s happening already, and we know because Elon accidentally told us.
My latest, on Substack:
Bo@davekarpf If one is on Mastadon to spite Twitter it's no different than Gab. If one doesn't use a platform why care? If one uses multiple platforms from Mastodon to nestr, IRC to Discord, Facebook to Reddit then why not hope they all thrive?
@vcg3rd no different than gab is an interesting frame. Immediate reaction: the problem (IMO) with people spite-leaving Twitter for Gab isn’t the spite-leaving, it’s the people.
Like, if all the reactionaries want to leave and start their own site, that’s good! They’ll form a hellscape, but it’ll be THEIR hellscape.
Twitter is a stack of semi/overlapping communities. If my communities all spite-leave for mastodon, then it’ll be good. Because the people are good.
