Sounds like Elon might be talking about some sort of moderation of content here. Wild. https://t.co/ImpUecUJDS

I’m not saying Mastodon wouldn’t benefit from some UI improvements, but I suspect that at least some of the people complaining about how complicated it is weren’t early adopters of Twitter. And by "early adopter", I mean anything before 2010 or so. Trust me, early Twitter was fairly complicated.

Regarding the Fedified project: I’m against its desire to be a centralized verifying authority, but I also recognize that for a lot of Twitter expats, they don’t have a website they control on which to place a link to their Mastodon profile with a rel attribute, and I think those of us who have been part of the fediverse/federation/indieweb for a while should probably grant some space on this.

Bulletproofing Embedded Tweets by Adrian RoselliAdrian Roselli (adrianroselli.com)
You may rely on embedding tweets in your posts as a quick and easy way to quote or reference a person or subject. There are two challenges to relying on this, however: A tweet or account may be deleted or go private; The content may not be accessible to users…

Useful for when Twitter goes completely sideways.

Periodic reminder that we still never got profiles of the voters in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Georgia who flipped the nation for Biden. https://t.co/nAUYfRgj4X

Yet again another example of how when someone says they're a 'free thinker' or 'independent minded', it just means that they're a generic RWer too embarrassed to state it publicly. https://t.co/5WupM5vDKZ

“I hope EM succeeds with Twitter” is becoming an indefensible position. I hope Twitter survives, but his behavior, including the childish response to Sen. Markey, makes clear he is a fundamentally unserious person who has no business running anything important.

Cherish this moment of Rs with their tails between their legs, on TV genuinely shocked like “We offered voters nothing at all except state-enforced pregnancies for raped children, but somehow Dems were more effective at pushing their radical agenda of ‘literally just not that.’”

i suppose it shouldn't be surprising Musk is childishly trolling one of the only members of the Senate who has actually been pretty thoughtful on tech policy issues, free speech, and content moderation.

would be deeply embarrassing if Musk were capable of feeling embarrassment https://t.co/rl7inkB92W

What’s that reason?

Ignore the time it takes to count, what’s your argument for why it shouldn’t be as convenient as possible for everyone to vote? https://t.co/cWkx9OUKF9

Ironic isn’t it? Mitch McConnell stealing a Supreme Court seat cost him his last chance at being Leader McConnell.

Let’s all thank @realchrisrufo for alienating normals by convincing the right to become a bunch of weird perverts who arbitrarily accuse beloved local kindergarten teachers of grooming kids simply by talking about their families.

Listen and create ambient sounds easily (ambient-mixer.com)
Listen online to relaxing sound atmospheres, ambient music or chilling sound effects. You can even create and mix your own moods, all for free.

For when music just isn’t hitting the spot, but you want something t o listen to.

New Mastodon Instances and a Local Timeline Experiment by Chris AldrichChris Aldrich (boffosocko.com)
I’ve been tempted to join a smaller Mastodon instance to be able to appreciate the value of having a useful local timeline.

One thing I have heard from *multiple* people at Twitter is that the crew that Elon has brought in appears to delight in being cruel. Not just in the layoffs. In everything. https://t.co/YYLjwGA9CB
