Now is a good reminder that Nashtodon is a thing and it's awesome.

I've moved over from esq social (which was a great place!) to the Nashtodon.com community that @n8foo created, and so far I love the local experience. That was what I enjoyed about twitter anyway.

Back on the topic of Nashville, we had a great presence on Twitter and from what I saw, it was mostly positive and productive. We used it to hold folks accountable, ask questions, and to share fun things and be social.
A local instance just made sense to me, which is why Nashtodon.com now exists. Now, how do we get @nashseverewx @freddieoconnell @NC5PhilWilliams to start posting over there? :-)

I'm desperately bored of Elon news cycles but this obviously pretextual, post-hoc change to policies to protect his own private jet info is hilarious and makes the stuff exposed in the Twitter Files look like an absolute model of considered, deliberative policy-making.

Hi, Twitter Fam just wanted to say our final good byes. It’s been a pleasure serving you this past 11 years. Twitter really made us feel apart of the culture and we will never forget that. 🎤🎤 drop

Twitter emailed San Francisco-based nonprofit Swords to Plowshares to tell them they’d no longer be sending a $10,000 donation they’d pledged “until the new leadership provides guidance."
The email said Twitter "paused indefinitely" all of its donations.

WTF, no, it's not like leaving your country, at all. Social media is entertainment. When it STOPS being entertaining you turn it off. If it becomes your actual life you need to spend some time reflecting.

On the bright side, would no longer have to maintain the iOS code base. And resource usage goes way down!
