With the admin of mastodon.lol announcing he would be shutting down the instance, I’ve moved to my own solo Mastodon instance. If you’re looking for me, I’ll be findable going forward at @eric@limulus.net.

If for some reason you want to continue to subject yourself to what I repost when the fail whale makes a permanent return, I’m starting my move to Mastodon: limulus@mastodon.lol
Who knows, maybe I’ll even write more of my own posts there!

I would say that this is sad but honestly Mastodon has been great. I didn’t log in to Twitter for all of January and I did not miss it at all.
If Musk wants to kill everything that made Twitter great at this point I am all for it.

Now is a good time to use a migration tool before their API access gets yanked.

Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

The eradication of third-party Twitter clients isn’t just a Musk thing, but the lack of comms this time is beyond insulting. Doubly so to the Twitterrific lot, who defined key aspect of Twitter in the first place. furbo.org/2011/03/11/twi…

Was going to wait until the end of the year before uninstalling Tweetbot, but there is no time like the present.
As you leave too, remember to put your Mastodon handle in your profile so your followers can use tools like Fedifinder to find you. See you all over there!

This tweet is Twitter's tombstone. Advertisers should flee from this site like a burning building. I'll be winding down my involvement here too, because I didn't sign up 11 years ago to rubberneck while a #fakesavant drags this beautiful community into a toilet of disinformation.

Just popping back in to say: it's time to go. You didn't join Gab, Gab joined you. But now you're on Gab and you shouldn't be. twitter.com/elonmusk/statu…

Let's be very clear about this tweet: it is a dog-whistle to an extreme, violent, anti-science rightwing, draped in flimsy 'ironic' plausible deniability. Musk does not give a damn about public health or rational discussion. He is showing you who he is - believe it

Many were here prior to Musk. But you can see what the Musk era is about on Twitter in the QTs of this thread. Literally hundreds of explicitly Nazi and anti-semitic accounts cheering on replays of the Final Solution. Of course vastly more merely Qanon, pro-Musk, pro-Trump etc.

There seems to be little limit to Elon Musk's predatory and malevolent nature. He is now insinuating that the fmr head of Trust & Safety at Twitter, an openly gay Jewish man, is a pedophile. Just another level of this is that Roth actually stayed on for several weeks under Musk..

Hey @TwitterSafety what happens when the owner of the platform is tweeting to get a scientist harassed or killed?
English
Eric McCarthy (Parody) retweetledi
Obviously a very good and healthy sign for this platform that its owner is doubling down on the QAnon-style rantings of someone who has been deemed too extreme and unhinged for Fox News and Newsmax.

Few things have made me dislike this site more than Musk's and Taibbi's histrionic, overblown grandstanding over the past days. You're publishing internal corporate documents from the company Musk owns. It's not some historic reporting effort. Stop blathering about your process.

Twitter seems like such a great place to work. You sleep at the office. You can be fired at any time. And if the CEO really doesn't like you, he'll send an army of trolls right to your door!
