Even with Mastodon, someone ends up in charge of yet another silo.

I'm working on a prosocial non-profit open-source alternative that keeps power with the individual instead of with the network owner. I'd love help or feedback: www.positivesum.net.

Mastodon/CS are getting hammered.

I joined Mastodon a few years ago. Couldn't really figure it out and didn't really need to. So I ignored it. Now that Twitter's fast becoming even more of a shit show, I went back to my log in. Server's dead. So I guess I need to start over. But I agree, if we can get our heads around it, and they can get their bandwidth up (I heard they're upgrading servers like mad), the theory of it is good. It's probably better than CS and Tribel... Time will tell.

Oh heads up, the rumor that they, whoever they is as usual, that they, is going to cutoff diesel. It was coming out of Louisiana early today. (Before my electric went off.) Chicken industrialist, is putting this out to their drivers.

Hi Jim. I will give Mastodon a whirl later this evening. Twitter is a Nazi/Fascist Propaganda Machine. Gross.
