@Ullilust I fear that mammoths might not be a very good example of adaptation… given they are most noticeable by their absence

[edit: or is that the joke?]

@aglet @Ullilust the flagship service is called Mastodon, like a mammoth
@cubeofcheese @Ullilust oh, is it? Amazing, they’ve kept that a pretty good secret
@aglet true. they say it to the audience, which is probably human.

@Ullilust #AltText4You

four-panel cartoon
Top left: Butterfly saying“Many of my friends went to Bluesky“ One mastodon says “Yeah, some guys have invested a lot of money there, - and they will want it back someday. Another mastodon says “This will not happen in our network.”

Top right: Mastodon says “Follow some hashtags that interest you. You’ll always find something to chew on.”

Bottom left: Mastodon climbing mountain says “Okay, in the beginning it feels lonely. The newcomer must first find his way around the new terrain.”

Bottom right: Mastodon says “You will adapt. You always do.”

@jdeisenberg Thank you! I was inserting Alt-Text, but unfortunately it didn't show.
@jdeisenberg inserted alt text again, maybe this time it shows! thumbs up!
@Ullilust thanks, it just appeared to me that Mastodon is a social network for old people 👀
@tymwol @Ullilust Old internet people <3 (sorry no alt, brainpower missing this time)
@Ullilust @ubi wait, I’ve seen this movie about Mastodons. It didn't end well.
@afif @ubi what movie?? do you have a link or something?

@Ullilust

"[...] they will want it back [...]"

Already in the process. There's already discussion of opt-in by default AI training.

@Ullilust

What wonderful hopeful comics you make!

Thank you!

@Ullilust Beautiful stuff. And perfect for this platform in subject matter, content and tone. ❤️
