What's happening with Twitter reminds me of the story about what happens if a non-pilot is suddenly asked to land a plane/sim. The thing carries on OK for a while, then things get a bit bad, and the attempts to fix that result in rapid unplanned disassembly.

I feel like there's a cautionary tale in the current tech billionaires shitting the bed.

One has not enough personality, one has far too much.

Both of them read a scifi novel exactly one time.

When it came time to reckon with social media’s failings, nobody ran to the “web3” platforms. Nobody asked “can I get paid per message”? Nobody asked about the blockchain. The community of people who’ve been quietly doing this work for years (decades!) ended up being the ones who welcomed everyone over, as always.
Looks like it's probably time to stop not posting on twitter and start not posting on mastodon.

OK, but seriously, how did Mastodon become 90% Japanese over a weekend?

A cursory google doesn't reveal any stories about it.

You look away for a long weekend, and the entire nation of Japan starts tooting.
ようこそ! 🇯🇵

Additional things I'm learning about Mastodon:
• People REALLY hated twitter.
• I don't speak French.
