Twitter Migration Report

I appreciate how many people are ignoring the X rebrand entirely and referring to it as Twitter. I doubt that'll ever go away fully.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

It was a cringe rebrand entirely because of the narcissistic "this is mine now I scribbled my name on it" antics of its new owner.

Same with fb (not meta) and google (not alphabet).

Facebook is a subsidiary of Meta. Google is a subsidiary of Alphabet. Twitter had an edgy X logo slapped on top of the peeling paint. TheyAreNotTheSame.meme

I did not tweet for years but I deleted and went to Firefish, it's a much nicer design than Mastodon and I can just read Mastodon from it. Love the fediverse!

I found their website and it looks neat but I really wish open source projects would stop naming their stuff things that make them impossible to search.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Oh yeah you do have a point. Ok. Well I very much enjoy it, Mastodon looks primitive when compared to Firefish.

I probably don't want to know what post.news is, do I?

[–] CorrodedCranium@leminal.space 2 points 2 years ago

Was this for Twitter alternatives? Because I feel like you'd see more mentions of Lemmy than Nostr

[–] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I'm surprised EM hasn't blocked posts that mention other replacements.

Not to say anything bad about Mastadon, I can't say I've been there a whole lot.

But seeing the amount of twitter users going there kinda makes me not wanna go there. Gives me the impression that's where Xwitter 2.0 is gonna happen.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My guy its federated. Mastodon is a protocol basically(from my understanding). Its like saying usb is gonna turn evil.

[–] Wage_slave@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But wasn't lemmy grad also federated and just got the boot for a whole mess about the middle easy situation?

I still don't know too much about the processes and what's not, so thanks for the info. Anything is more than I know now lol

Lemmy grad isn't the platform lemmy it was a single instance. The other person was tryna say that mastodon is a platform like lemmy so while yes there'll be instances like lemmy grad because mastodon is the platform and not the instance your instance can "block" or defederate the other one.
