So let me break down how things are going on the internet today:

- Twitter: Rate-limited
- Reddit: Third-party apps dead
- Pornhub: Effectively just got banned in my state because of a bad law
- Bluesky: Slow as molasses because everyone’s on a single server
- Twitch: Hear they’re having problems, too
- YouTube: Working OK but sudden questions about them, too
- Mastodon: Running perfectly

We can make this work.

@ernie in fairness, at some point one's Mastodon instance will have problems. I don't want to present Mastodon as a perfect utopia that never fails, giving users a false sense of what it can or can't do.
