I'm not seeing much at all of that currently. A week ago? Sure. Now it's been consolidated to a mega thread.

What if I told you we don't need to compete with them?
The biggest issue is normies are stupid. That’s basically the gist.
I won’t touch anything with Dorsey’s name attached. Yuck.
Before algorithms we all used hashtags. Hashtags were very important to Twitter in the before times. That’s how you find topics on mastodon. I have columns set with specific hashtag sets so I can quickly glance at toots about horror movies, birds, retrogaming, etc…
You can also follow hashtags directly in your home feed just like Twitter topics.
It’s really not a difficult thing at all, but people are so addicted to Twitter they always give a halfassed attempt at switching before throwing up their hands.
Just delete the account a make it on another instance? What’s the issue?
Everyone always saying “rip Twitter” but y’all never leave, so…
Trying it now. Thunder is really good but it feels like it’s designed for Android not iOS. Very “material you” feeling.
Eh. I used to be a YouTube junkie but honestly I’ve gone back to live TV, Hulu, Netflix, etc… I’m kinda over the whole YouTube thing.
Mastodon is better anyway. I deleted Twitter ages ago when Musk took over. It's amazing how many people have stayed there despite how much he's shit all over the userbase. He makes Spez look like a saint.
It’s not implemented well because it adds it to your account immediately without needing to confirm the code. This means if the user doesn’t know what they’re doing they could add 2FA and not copy the code correctly to their password manager resulting in a lockout.
