    New Corporate Owned Social Media Network: “ooh cool so many people are using it let’s put all of our critical stuff on there alerts weather warnings and kill our RSS feeds and only interact with customers there”

    New Federated Open Social Media Network: “this is phase 7 of our extremely careful 10 phase plan to possibly repost stuff we put on twitter there if the social media intern remembers”

    Don’t get me wrong I’m glad they’re doing this, but I find it hilarious that everyone trips over themselves launching on Twitter and TikTok without thinking it through at all, and yet for Mastodon it has to be a limited phased trial.
