Founder of a competing social media company to Twitter
To everyone joining from Twitter today - don’t worry! One of the benefits of Mastodon running on a single load-bearing PCjr (in a closet) is that the network completely lacks the computational capacity to DDOS itself.
Hey guys! Elon do anything stupid lately?
I don’t even know how to make fun of Elon anymore
Update: I was informed by an engineer that no one wants that, and it’s not possible on Mastodon anyway.
I fired the engineer an email praising them for their honesty and integrity, and they’ll be getting a bonus next week.
I am truly sorry that your timeline isn’t filled up with John Mastodon posts. Meeting with the engineers now.
Mastodon might take a little effort to set up, but at least you don’t have to pay money to appear in people’s feeds or worry about third party apps suddenly not working.

Decentralized networks represent nature, which has no specific “boss,” far better than centralized networks do. The Fediverse and networks like it are a natural evolution of the internet, and they will only get better with time.
I hereby enter my name into consideration for Speaker of the House. Or George Takei, he would be great too.
