  • @viticci thought it was a nice you gave Automattic a brief mention on the last Connected as an example of somebody you might trust if they bought #Twitter (or something to that regard).

  • Even w/ #Mastodon UI limitations and quirks, I acknowledge that (for me) the past 2 months has felt like the early days of #Twitter (pre-2011?): 👉🏻 People figuring out "how to use it"👉🏻 One-person teams, hobbyists playing w/ APIs and quick building tools and apps.👉🏻 Positively talking about the network ON the network.👉🏻 New memes…

  • “TwitVault" is a cross platform (Mac/Win/Linux) syncable desktop app downloads/imports your #Twitter profile data so you can browse and search your stuff offline. https://terhechte.github.io/twitvault/ https://github.com/terhechte/twitvault #opensource

  • OMG someone got footage on a live feed inside #Twitter HQ when the "not allowing mentions of social media platforms” policy was actually reversed.

  • SURPRISE. #Twitter deletes TwitterSafety's thread and policy on their help page detailing its new policy to prevent accounts from promoting other social media platforms, including #Mastodon. 🙄 What this means for us here: should be able to still use tools to find folks who come over from the #TwitterMigration. Especially since there appear to be…

  • If my wife enforced the same rules as #Twitter does I would never be aloud to talk about Beyoncé again. Still probably not a good idea though.

  • Friend: "Define #Twitter policies in the past few weeks". Me: 🤔

  • My #Twitter stream at the moment.

  • Why does owning your own content matter? #Twitter is also prohibiting “3rd party social media link aggregators as linktr.ee and lnk.bio.” If you had your own website… you could people THERE to share your social links.

  • #Twitter policy doesn't just effect what content is in the tweets you post but anything your profile – including #Mastodon usernames. Services attempting to find people who came from Twitter will basically now be worthless (unless i'm missing something). I am currently primarily using https://movetodon.org/

  • Finally… if i was Hive should I feel bad #Twitter didn't include me on the Alt Social Platforms policy? 🤔😆

  • I'm noticing #Tumblr isn't on this list. Does #Twitter not consider it a "threat" or a social network?

  • #Twitter just now released a "Promotion of alternative social platforms policy" that includes #Mastodon. "We will no longer allow free promotion of certain social media platforms on Twitter… we will remove accounts created solely for the purpose of promoting other social platforms and content that contains links or usernames for the following platforms: #Facebook, #Instagram,…

  • When you consider yourself an important “social network” and NOT mentioned in Twitter’s ban.

  • Tumblr dodged this somehow. 😆

  • More Mastodon $0.02: Con – Interface (especially on the web) seems a bit clunky. Hard to describe (also experienced in mobile apps so it's not JUST the UI). I see live tweeting more natural vs live… tooting. Con – Some scaling concerns, more on that maybe later. Pro – No quote w/ boosts. I think…

  • Seems legit. #WallStreet #Twitter

  • RT @toranshaw: Is wondering if there’s a way to create a #Twitter list for each #BuddyPress group? Would be useful, if possible. #Wordpress
