Expect another inflow of #Twitter emigrants. I see more posts about Mastodon over there today than I have before. I think we're approaching a true 'huddled masses' situation thanks to #elon.

If you just arrived, Welcome. Pull up a chair and rest. You have all the time in the world to figure this place out.

Follow @feditips and ask questions. There is always someone here to answer you.

@noondlyt @feditips why this time? All the technical issues with Twitter today?

The technical issues continue to escalate in severity. Today's is a big one that elon is basically throwing his hands in the air and saying the whole thing (twitter) needs to be rewritten. Um. This was not a problem before he shut down two data centers and had programmers screw with the api. It is intentional.

@noondlyt @feditips I see. I had not read that he said it needed a rewrite. Shame. As it has no employees to rewrite it.

@gpowerf @noondlyt @feditips He doesn't know what his employees do, and then he mocks the ones he fires. (not that he tells them they're fired... he just locks their access, mocks them some more and then eventually tells them they're fired)
