it's so bizarre that everyone's judgment of mastodon's success uses the same rubric as twitter's success.

for me, marginalized ppl feeling loved, cared for, and supported in a radical, restorative space is a success and I don't think forbes will ever understand that

@Akatookey I recognise "twitter" and "mastodon" but what is this "forbes" thing? #isitabookshop?
@caitlin lol, forbes magazine wrote a goofy article about mastodon and why it will fail. i'm not even gonna bother linking it
@Akatookey ah. Yes it will fail, as will Forbes and all things in time.
