Kudos to @gargron@mastodon.social for an effective positioning of Mastodon against the competition.

Not as dramatic as Threads or Bluesky, but Mastodon creator Eugen Rochko told me Mastodon is also growing, with signups up 27% so far in November. From my chat with him yesterday:

Hmm, somewhere between Threads and Mastodon, @Gargron turned into an e-mail address.

Yep, I know @pcottle and team aren't quite at this point yet with integration, but I underscores the need for interop testing once again.#FediTest

You mean it, don't you, Threads ?

You could do worse than working for Ben. Or ProPublica.

I’m feeling the same way. The ActivityPub world looks like a largely blank canvas where a bunch of misfits :-) only started drawing something amazing in some corner. It can become this amazing giant live mural (if there is such a thing) glittering in all the colors and constantly transforming itself, with no overlords in sight.

Current tech generation of AI, in comparison, has too many wannabe overlords and its limits built right in.
