        I can’t imagine anyone being pushed by anything if they weren’t pushed away until now

          I think it’s the usual “it hasn’t impacted me personally, so how bad can it be” maintaining the status quo at all costs.

          Once something happens that they care about, they’ll be on the Fediverse that day crowing loudly about how awful Xitter has suddenly become…

      Mastodon lacks full-text search, which kills the main reason that Twitter appealed to me, the real-time-updated full-text index.

      Elon Musk doesn’t have NPD. And accusing people of being disabled is not an epic burn. It’s only an insult if you think disabled people are worth less than neurotypicals. Sensible people don’t hate the disabled, so calling him a n*rcissist isn’t an insult.

      Calling him neurotypical is a bigger insult. Because it implies that all of his weirdness is a choice.

    The ban lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes. Id guess it was triggered by so many people suddenly joining the account. Musk ain’t great but the hyper sensitivity around him is getting weird.

      What a coincidence, a strong liberal fundraising account getting banned just as Musk promises to donate $45mil/month to the Trump campaign and complains about the “woke mind virus.” I’m sure you can point to similar conservative accounts getting banned and staying banned for several hours right?

      Except that no reason for the ban was given. If the ban was due to a sudden uptick in followers, why wasn’t that reason sent along with the ban? And then there is the timing which coincided with the fundraiser. All of this on top of Musk publicly declaring his endorsement of Trump and the promise of finding his campaign. Too many “coincidences” are a clear indication of intent.
