I _think_ Twitter will die but I don't exactly hope that it will.
|
|
|
|
The best thing that could come out of this is that Mastodon gets critical mass
|
|
such that it can survive on its own. We don't have any popular services besides
|
|
email which are decentralized anymore.
|
|
|
|
Mastodon is more complicated than Twitter because you have to "pick a server"
|
|
and that's true but at the end of the day all that matters is where the people
|
|
are.
|
|
|
|
If enough content generating posters will just make the shift at once then this
|
|
thing can be self-sustaining...even if it is more complicated.
|
|
|
|
Twitter was more complicated than not using Twitter and people still started
|
|
using it. This is perenially true for all new things.
|
|
|
|
Anyway, it's late and I'm tired.
|
|
|
|
Long live microblogging.
