Looks like there might be yet another mass-migration wave from Twitter to Mastodon on the way...

@ajsadauskas @technology "It’s the only way I can think of to combat vast armies of bots."

He's not very good at this, is he? It's like he's had amnesia about firing his entire Trust and Safety team...

Elon is the greatest advocate for Mastodon, and he's even paying for the effort.

Twitter to Mastodon

Mastodon isn't the only federated micro-blogging platform..

@Epsilon It's not, but it's the one many first-time Fediverse users coming across from Twitter end up on. (Much like how many users coming across from Reddit end up on Lemmy first.)

Then the jump from Mastodon to Calckey/Pleroma/Frienica/Pixelfed/etc in many cases comes later.
