MozillaToday’s social media status quo isn’t cutting it, so Mozilla is exploring an alternative here on Mastodon. In early 2023, Mozilla will be testing a publicly accessible instance in the Fediverse at Mozilla.Social. We will keep you updated, but for now learn more here: https://mzl.la/3BNXQMQ
Peter SterneThe New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, CNN and Associated Press have all posted guides to using Mastodon, which in turn have been syndicated by numerous local news outlets. That matters. We're rapidly approaching a situation where the media will refer to things happening "on Mastodon" the way they referred to Twitter in, say, 2013.
Justin PotMy latest for WIRED: The Mastodon features Elon Musk should steal but won't because he hates you

Posting this here tonight for you all. Will post on Twitter tomorrow. We'll see if I have a Twitter account still on Tuesday. #TwitterMigration #MastodonMigration
Bryan CantrillTwitter's (shocking!) suspension of @paulg reminds me of Mubarak shutting off the Internet in Egypt: an act so delusional and shortsighted that it can only come from the final madness of a shrinking despot.
Matt BinderI am once again locked out of Twitter.
Twitter just locked my account after I asked Twitter's head of Trust & Safety Ella Irwin why I haven't been informed of what tweet broke Twitter's policies
Seems they forgot to force me to delete the tweet the first time, like they did the other suspended journalists.
This is the tweet they want me to delete to get back into my account:
Can’t help but notice that when Twitter banned cross-linking certain social media sites it didn’t include Gab, Gettr, or Parler.
Mike Masnick ✅Lol. Musk is seeing the exodus, so he's trying to bar the doors as everyone rushes for the exits.
No more linking to other social networks or sharing your username.
Such free speech.
Dan GillmorI don't think journalists (in general) -- and certainly not the organizations they work for -- fully understand the threat Musk represents to the future of free expression and journalism itself.
Begging him to reinstate the banned accounts is pure folly. It is bended-knee supplication to a sociopath who now controls a powerful media company. But the power of his company depends in no small degree on keeping journalists there.
Leave. Now.
Sorry... (really not sorry at all). I asked ChatGPT to write a Jay-Z song name checking John Mastodon, and the results were so much better than I could have expected.... #JohnMastodon
