title: lnxw48a1: https://sixcolors.com/link/2023/01/the-end-of-the-twitter-client-era/ [sixcolors com] I remember using 3rd party clients to access #Twitter. There was the commandline #TTYtter, the #Flock browser's built-in social client, and many others. As Twitter added ads andspewed tons of #JavaScript, leading to a "jumping and twitching" interface that would move underneath your mouse pointer and cause mis-clicks, and as it took 5-10 minutes after logging in for the page to fully load, it was clients that made the site tolerable. There was the "OAuth-pocalypse", when they required all clients to use OAuth (v2?) and it intermittently failed for a few weeks. Then came the day when clients and other API uses "that substantially reproduce" the Twitter UI were notified that their days were numbered. I remember @evan telling them that Identica and other StatusNet instances had a similar API ... but few, if any, clients came over. Most just shut down. Hilariously, there was a trivially reproducible social ranking thing that was cited as an example of the kind of API uses Twitter considered interesting and allowable. There were other, lesser bumps in the road, but as Twitter had already strangled most of its client ecosystem, I did not pay attention.

"Mastodon brought a protocol to a product fight" > Yes, yes, the network is under immense strain as people flee the Elon strain infecting Twitter. But come on, there are folks who really believe this is going to replace, or even stand alongside Twitter, as a massively scaled social network? I call bullshit. While it’s impressive that millions of users have apparently given Mastodon a try, the product is far too slapdash and clunky to keep folks engaged. A lump of coal. No, it isn't meant to be a #Twitter replacement. Keep your Twitter account until you no longer want it--or the company closes and the site shuts down--you can use Mastodon alongside Twitter. And the #Fediverse networks are much more than just #Mastodon. Don't think you have experienced the network and all it has to offer if all you've done is briefly tried to use Mastodon, because you haven't experienced it. > I’ve somehow avoided signing up for the service up until now. Largely because signing up was and is so comically obtuse — pick your server everyone, hope you choose wisely! Have you not used e-mail? It works the same way. You pick a server, such as Gmail or Outlook dot com, and sign up. Please tell me you realize that the people you communicate with are not all on the same e-mail service that you use. > But, but, it’s not a product, it’s a protocol. Yeah, that’s a nice thing to say. And to believe in. But I truly believe the ship has sadly sailed for such idealism in this space. Jack Dorsey can talk about how this should have been what Twitter was from the get go until he’s bluesky in the face. It’s just not going to happen. And he’s more to blame for that than most everyone else. As is he for the Elon element of this current equation. But that’s a different story.

title: lnxw48a1: https://masto.ai/@fedi/109524542188078836 > BREAKING NEWS: Gargron is no longer the most followed person on mastodon. This is great news (no offence to @gargron ) as it signifies the network is growing to be more independent of its most famous developer. > The new most followed person is @georgetakei@universeodon.com So let me tell you why this is NOT a good thing. George Takei is a celebrity actor. That people are crawling after actors and other celebs means that the #Twitter migration is bringing their culture (with all its flaws) here. Again, as they did this before during #Mastodon's early growth. Much Masto culture is merely Twitter and Tumblr culture, sometimes reflected in a mirror and sometimes adopted wholesale. Thankfully, the #Fediverse is more than just Mastodon.

When something happens--an event, a news story, a tragedy--people turn to #Twitter because the people in the know are there. Severe weather, earthquake, flood, all of them are reported on Twitter, sometimes with links to a news or agency report. California Highway Patrol even puts its AMBER alerts there.

"Every time you post on Twitter, you produce value for the advertisers. You tell everyone in your network there that it's OK to stay. That you're all helpless to leave. You tell the people who've lost their jobs, the people who are being hounded and harassed, that they are not important to you. You know you're going to be ashamed of it later. Just stop posting. Do it here, not there. Connect here, not there. Don't reply, don't like, don't retweet. Stop feeding your life into the machine." This was true before Elon #Musk bought #Twitter, but I guess it wasn't as important before. I don't fully agree, simply because there may be some advantages to many people who continue to use Twitter instead of moving to the #Fediverse (e.g., #GNU_Social, #Mastodon, #Pleroma, #Misskey, #PixelFed, #Lenny / #Lemmy, etc) or they would have moved over already. Also, because unless one self-hosts one's own presence, an angry instance admin is all it takes to lose all posts and connections and have to start over. Or, if one has contacts on a different instance, then irate instance admins participating in #blockwars (including #fediblock) can separate the person from some portion of their contacts. So remember, everything that Twitter is or can do to you, your Fediverse instance can also do. Most instances will never do most of those things, but pretending that one is safe here could result in disappointment in the future.

title: lnxw48a1: Tagging this thread with #Fediverse #Security ... whomever made the script obviously read some protocol docs and some source code. With just a little #JavaScript, they were able to knock some #Misskey and #Mastodon instances to their knees. This isn't the first, and it won't be the last. Remember when someone posted a humongous image and locked up any #GNUSocial instance that tried to download the image? Remember when someone's instance was replaced by some sort of cryptocurrency site and PuSH es from your site to theirs would crash your site because of their site's response? (I'll bet I still have that domain blocked at the firewall.) We have to stop being naive about the intentions of those in the current migration. The overwhelming majority will have benign, if not good, intentions. But a select few will have bad intentions. Among those intentions is to colonize the Fediverse with #Twitter's culture, to come here and impose that culture of anger and disrespect upon the inhabitants here ... which already happened once with the first wave of people joining #Mastodon instance, except it was Twitter and #Tumblr at that time.

title: lnxw48a1: Unanswered: will his lenders go after him for fraud if he files BK? By him making #Twitter fail so badly so quickly, I think they should be able to prove it in civil court. Also, I wonder whether they made him put up Tesla and / or SpaceX ownership as collateral. If they only relied on Twitter assets, they'll be lucky to get 50% (and I'd guess 20% is more likely, as most of the company's value was as "a going concern").

title: lnxw48a1: @simsa04 One thing that stood out to me as a former business major is that ... once #Musk followed up his presumably drunk purchase offer with a serious purchase offer, #Twitter management was legally obligated to sell the company and to pursue any and all legal remedies to cause that to be accomplished. They could sell it to him or they could find someone offering a higher price, but they had to sell the company. If Elon Musk wasn't so sure of his own superiority, he could have said "I was drunk / stoned and not thinking clearly, so the offer I made is rescinded", but instead he followed through (probably because he secretly bought 9% of the company before any of this happened, so making that sort of offer and not carrying it out could have subjected him to civil and criminal penalties). It really is sad that they had to do so regardless of their belief that he was overpaying and that he would not be able to make the payments on his loans, but present US securities laws require this.

A person or group with lots of money can come along and take over, ejecting the prior leaders and employees and changing the company's purpose and direction. They can wreck everything you built. Sometimes, being a !smallbiz can hide you from corporate predators.

I have plenty to say about them, but I don't say it in *their own forum* or in a way that that can be trivially linked to a specific employee. Maybe #Twitter's employees never knew how good they had it until it all changed. Now that they have the ultimate pointy haired boss, they are subjected to the kind of things that restaurant / retail / warehouse workers had all along.
