“I think the structure lends itself to more discussion and discourse than kind of your knee jerk retweet.” Mastodon is far from being a mainstream social media platform, says Gergely Orosz, who writes about software engineering. He has seen a part of the tech community migrate over to Mastodon over the years and a sharp influx after this week’s Twitter ordeal.

Some users went to truth social as well, but guess what? They suck and twitter doesn’t. It’s a hard pill to swallow, I guess…
Its an echo chamber, and with noone to preach to the megalibs just get bored
