Hello, just giving everyone a heads up that I'm migrating my account to social.linux.pizza.
I'm taking you all with me, but thought I'd keep you updated in case there's any funny business in the process

Taken last week, when the #moon was so full I could literally read in it

Some people have replied to this post with their favorite Calvin and Hobbes strips, and this one is mine. What I especially like about it is the implication that, as many times as we've seen Calvin and Hobbes waiting for the school bus, we've never seen his mom watching him out the window and dutifully retrieving the stuffed animal Hobbes from the street. Calvin is so often in his own world, which is independent and sometimes opposed to his parents, but they love him and foster his imagination.

Here's your irregular reminder that:

Twitter was a multi-billion dollar company with thousands of employees.

Mastodon is a niche hobbyist product run by volunteers

The fact that we're being seen as a viable alternative to them is an admission that a federated, decentralized future is not only possible, but desirable.

Mastodon is not one thing, or one place. It's a network of many things and many places. We don't have a spokesperson (I mean, there's me. I'm the official spokesperson for 💯 of the fediverse, but beyond me there is no spokesperson) we don't have consensus on moderation or blocking or tools or what is good and what is bad. Some of us are professional SREs and Sysadmins, some of us aren't. Some of our instances have been around for 5+ years, some won't be here in six months.

And that's good! All of it, every last bit of it is good.

We're wrestling power away from the billionaire class, in real time, and reclaiming it for the People.
