I think it's super important that we realize that Mastodon isn't "the next Twitter / Tumblr / whatever". It's not there yet. I was on the ground floor when people were "migrating" to Google Plus, and that went so horribly because we all thought it was gonna kill Facebook tomorrow.

We won't kill *anything* unless we make this a place people want to come to by 1) keeping all oppressors out and 2) making good community / context / posts

just according to keikaku @InspectorCaracal

@ben_c *I* think it's super important to realize that we aren't trying to kill twitter. We're trying to have a social media platform that doesn't suck. 👼

Mastodon doesn't need be a Twitter-killer.

Twitter is already a Twitter-killer.

@InspectorCaracal @ben_c the product is so far removed from what twitter is trying to be anyways. At most it could be compared to "legacy twitter" and that's only comparing technology on a single instance without bringing federation or community into this.

@tobypinder @InspectorCaracal @ben_c

yeah I'm quite happy for Twitter to go on without me... I just need a refuge where I can find really like minds. My Twitter feed isn't even politics and personal chat but people whining about politicians or personal health issues. No matter how much I unfollow.

@InspectorCaracal true facts. I could have said that bit in a different way.
