Mastodon Migration

An Incredible Day In Internet History

It started with the Twitter lockout. 10,000 new users per hour. A QUARTER MILLION people migrated to Mastodon in one day. The servers struggled. Remarkably, admins all over the world built up capacity in real time. New users were patient. The system held.

It's running better now. There will be more hard days ahead, but people powered social media has arrived.

@mastodonmigration thanks to all the admins out there. I also donated to my local server and encourage others to do the same.

@Workbrightnz @mastodonmigration I echo 'workbrightnz' - I also donated to my local server (and monthly going forward) and encourage others to do the same.
