Do other people think "Tyrannosaurus!" soon as they read the name Mastodon?

Do other people think "Tyrannosaurus!" soon as they read the name Mastodon? - Lemmy.world

And is it too much to ask the fediverse to contain a pterodactyl, triceratops, and saber tooth tiger themed apps?

All in all, the fediverse is a megazord

Mastodons lived like 30 million years after dinosaurs...

And pterodactyls weren't dinosaurs. Pterodons were though....I think

Nope, neither were, they're both flying reptiles in the Pterosaur clade. They did live alongside dinosaurs though.

no, i think of a weird-shaped elephant with ginormous tusks that curl almost into a circle

Saber tooth tiger is the only thing on that list that actually makes sense thematically. Possibly one of the later Terror Birds would work as a theme though...

I know it's completely wrong but it makes me think of a shark. Like a megalodon I guess?

No, but I am certainly going to now!

Mastodon is an awesome name. Calling their tweets "toots" however...

Fool! Doctor Doom toots as he pleases!

it's lovely and whimsical! Much better than just "posts" which is what they've renamed them to :(
Show threadDayDuJourJun 21, 2023
Maybe it's cultural but "toots" just make me think of farts.

This is definitely dating yourself... and me too.

Crazy to think. But I'll be damned if it isn't still cool.
