Alasdair AllanMusk has used "Vox populi, Vox Dei" to justify reinstating Trump on #Twiiter. But the quote is from a letter from Alcuin to the Emporer Charlemagne urging him to resist such ideas, "Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, Vox populi, vox Dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit." Which translates as "And do not listen to those who keep saying, 'The voice of the people is the voice of God', because the tumult of the crowd is always close to madness."

Imagine every script kiddie as well as semi organized network intrusion specialist taking advantage of the fact that Twitter is at its most understaffed at this very point in time.
It creates a very special storm brewing...
Get some popcorn... 🍿
Jerry LevineHave you just made the #Twexit or the #TwitterMigration? Keep in mind, things aren't exactly the same as on #Twitter!
1. Favorites ⭐ - they're not "likes". They don't help posts, they just let the Mastodon member who posted know you thought it was cool!
2. Boosts 🔁 - these push someone's post into your friends feeds!
So if you ⭐ my posts, that's great (and I love you too)!
But if you boost 🔁 posts, then more people see them!
@FerdiZ @neilhimself looks official to me! 🤔
So where does one acquire this mystical magical self authenticating green check tick?
