@bastianallgeier @reichenstein The thing with that analogy of Mastodon 2022 and Twitter 2008 is: give it 5--10 years (to Twitter 2018 standards) -- and will people complain about similar problems by then? Toxic timelines, etc?

I do hope Mastodon's non-profit roots enable better tools to fight this, like smaller instances and moderation, and help users create spaces they enjoy.

But we should brace for the inevitable problems of scaling this up.
