I founded TPM.
@johnweeks Eeesh. It was just a comment. It's not I'm trashing the place. I'm here. I'm trying to see how it works.
So I've been looking into moving from one instance to another. But it looks like when you do this your older messages stay at the old instance?
if this is common it will fall apart pretty fast https://mastodon.online/@craiggerber/109299306860019014

@[email protected] It took 7 hours for your post to appear on my timeline because we are on different mastodon servers. This is not the best lifeboat for the bird site.

@craiggerber Huh if that's common that's certainly going to kill it.

@joshtpm

You're a popular guy Josh. 😊

The irony is that Trump, perhaps as much as anyone, would have a field day with the Air DeSantis stunt. Not because it's mean obviously. But just because it was a goof. A fail. Had to cancel his plan. Somehow couldn't find migrants in FL. Mostly just weird. Ripe for mockery.
@jonstahl Totally. The open internet is the best example. But while I think that's true in general in this case it seems sluggish. And I'm wondering if the growth will stall out because the UE just isn't what people have been led to expect from Twitter and other platforms.
It's weird. CounterSocial has much more nimble servers, response time, but Mastodon seems to be the one that's pulling people over. Of course the latter cld be driving the former. But I have some skepticism whether a a decentralized framework can handle a rush of new people.
@oppositeofzero i'm sure it's legit. but i was leery of authorizing a site into either account which is a total unknown.
