That first line is so spot on. Brightened up my day

We should as a community ensure Twitter\X lives forever..

If only as a place to keep certain social media users “entertained”

In all seriousness it does concern me how often I see such a wide variety of news agencies quote Twitter considering the amount of hate that goes on there

I don’t know what you mean? How could a codebase so often patched for exploits and problems be so horrible, surely it’s a shining example of all that is good with the internet? ;-)

Don’t envy anyone involved in this.. it’s a lot of work

It’s an interesting video and having read the comments there are a few things worth noting:

1. from a layman’s perspective I understand the focus on threads, for most like it or not it’s the simplest entry point into the Fediverse
2. its important that this type of podcast is talking about this subject at this time
3. sure it’s dumbed down, we are not the audience

It’s no surprise either it was released as Meta did some big fediverse PR yesterday…

What’s important right now is getting bums on seats, keeping activitypub momentum moving forward.

Interesting video, hope it spawns more curiosity
