that the mastodon federation works so well despite massive queue delays indicates it would also work well even with instances scattered about the solar system. a trial run for a future we have yet to immanentize

The number of queer users on Mastodon/Imzy is a pretty strong indictment of mainstream social networks—as if the issues with those services weren't public enough already.

I don't judge social networks in terms of Twitter-killers, just as I don't see every new Linux distro as a Mac/Windows-killer. If the goal is to provide a valuable alternative that makes a difference to people, success is not an all-or-nothing matter. This is the culmination of every innovation—when it starts sprouting niches.

Hi, I made a joke about the Wendy's chicken nuggets RT thing & it got misinterpreted and now some earnest young man got 10,000 RTs on his attempt to get an internship with me, goddamnit the Internet is just too much sometimes.

I don't even feel like this has to supplant twitter to be useful or successful or whatever. The social mass that twitter has accumulated isn't going anywhere soon. But an alternate, potentially more intimate form that could coexist? Interesting.
