Just tried to tweet this and got this message. Case in point, I guess.

If this gets me suspended, it's been a nice few years on here!

Paul Graham went down with honor.

[Dave Hoover @davehoover]

And…. I’m done here.

[The Oatmeal @Oatmeal]

Also, I just sponsored Mastodon at the $500/month tier. Gotta keep those servers chugging.

I added a panel to the end

[Adam the Typer @therealadam]

All these “signing off Twitter, see you in the next universe” messages are what Oscar acceptance speeches would be like if they played you off after 5 seconds.

[Paul Graham @paulg]

This is the last straw. I give up. You can find a link to my new Mastodon profile on my site.

Reminder of the resource: https://t.co/CvWYps5v0k which can make any move you might have considered very smooth

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The acid test for any two competing socioeconomic systems is which side needs to build a wall to keep people from escaping? That’s the bad one!

[Conrad Barski @lisperati]

I admit that I was cautiously optimistic when elon took the helm, which was clearly a mistake

Is there anything still worth saving here?

I assume the sooner we post our (obfuscated) mastadon links the harder it will be for twitter to suspend our accounts in response first

[matt godbolt is mostly on bsky these days @mattgodbolt]

Have you any idea how childish this sounds? Ugh :(

[Simone Giertz @SimoneGiertz]

ok finally going to download mastodon

[Charles Lowell @cowboyd]

Recommends for best desktop app for Mastodon?

[vitalik.eth @VitalikButerin]

@DavidSacks The problem is the way in which the policies were introduced, seeming to retrofit around Elon's views on very specific situations.

Basically "central planning as overfitting":

Good policy should be decided behind veil of ignorance first, applied second

[vitalik.eth @VitalikButerin]

This is really bad imo

[The Verge @verge]

Twitter is blocking links to Mastodon https://t.co/0JahOAdSlE
