@jerry What is driving me crazy is one of my friends on Twitter dismissed joining Mastodon because of these articles believing it was niche and there was only a few thousand people here. I pointed out 110,000 people alone joined in the 24 hours after chucklehead rate limited everyone.
I think I've talked them into it now they know the actual truth.
I saw Mastodon mentioned in the same sentence today as Reddit and Twitter burning to the ground.
Clearly an agenda going on there.
@RetroSponge yeah. I think media that is used to reporting on commercial enterprises struggles with things like the fediverse. For a variety of reasons.
