Looking at some rough statistics for the Fediverse tonight and it appears that since November 4 that there are now 1,785 more instances or nodes in the network. About 60 of those are WordPress-based sites!

Waaaahhhh, we hijacked the Republican Party with our fascist nationalist movement centered on election denialism and a Trump personality cult that destroys anyone who disagrees with it.

Why won’t the old party normies help us? Waaahhhhhh. https://t.co/VtFnQdE6jQ

I mean... We went from "power to the people" to "there is no choice but for Twitter to be the final arbiter" in like a week and a half of confusion.

Maybe next time you burn billions, take a minute to understand why the business you bought operates the way it does. https://t.co/yn7ymaa3nL

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
