I was giggling at all the posts in the thread about how Mastodon servers are all buckling under the weight of the influx of twats, imagining incompetent hobbyists dabbling in Babby's First RPi server and figuring people were just under-provisioning things leading to the instances falling over.

Then I went and looked at the source code and then thought: "Oh dear."

It's a fucking Ruby on Rails application. 58.4% Ruby, 27.7% Javascript, and only 0.3% HTML and Mustache (HTML templates). Jesus wept.

Pffffft bahahahahahaha! Oh my god this is going to be such a glorious train wreck.

I wonder how hard it'd be to bang together a better implementation of Mastodon in something like Erlang or Elixir. They're both great gatekeeping languages if nothing else. Fuckin' fast too for comms-related activities.

erlang is for ultra distributed systems and mega concurrency
webdevs who use ruby and js avoid such difficult things like the plague

I feel it's worth noting that the people remaining on Tumblr have strong opinions about Twitter and shitting on migrating accounts is as regular there as it is in mastodon. If they hire Twitter expats the site isn't going to be happy.

It's also worth noting Tumblr lets you send anonymous DMs and the Twitter users really aren't enjoying the fact people can spam nigger at them and they can't report it.

Now they know how twitter users felt when the mass tumblr migration happened.

These people really did nazi this coming.

Why does every die-hard atheist say "oh God" instead of "oh science?"

One part of me wants to see more politicans move to the fediverse to get called nigger but the other half of me feels like they'd sperg out and ban it.

Why are these people so wordy

Savanah Hernandez had her account restored and is already tweeting furiously.

https://twitter.com/sav_says_

Background: Hernandez covered the BLM/Antifa violence and destruction throughout 2020, uploading videos of rioting and indeed herself being attacked by a mob. After Trump retweeted one of her videos of the Million MAGA March, Twitter nuked her entire account and its 120k followers.

She later created a professional account for her podcast (@RapidFire_Pod). When she tweeted out an interview of a swimmer distraught about William "Lia" Thomas pushing out female swimmers, Twitter then banned that account.

The 2022 Athiest is not a real athiest. If they’re on Twitter complaining like this, then they’re no different than your average social justice warriors that gets paid to complain for a living.

 

[TitusOvid]

Yeah, its only right wingers being brought back because they were the only ones who were getting banned. Violent leftists had free reign to make threats and do whatever until now.

 

[AgendaPoster]

Sargon is back too.
Can we at least get back the original Metokur and Jersh accounts to go with Sargoy of Cuckad?
I guess nope

 

[TitusOvid]

OMG, Rekieta is back!

 

[WhiteNight]

OMG, Rekieta is back!

@RekietaLaw is back but @NickRekieta (banned in 2019) is still suspended.

Edit: See replies below. The history is more complicated since Rackets changed account names.

 

[Puff]

@RekietaLaw is back but @NickRekieta (banned in 2019) is still suspended.

I thought it was "RekietaLaw", banned, "RekietaMedia" was the replacement, eventually changed the name back to the original, then banned again.

Here's the latest in "Musk is burning down twitter" doomposting.

This originates from a post on Blind which seems to basically be "dude trust me." The name of "Financial Services Company" seems to lead to a company named Current which I've never heard of so it doesn't seem all that trustworthy.

FWIW, I've noticed that most posts on blind are utter bullshit. Maybe you find something real...sometimes. Of course it could all be true since apparently 'advertisers' and their paypig masters have decided that Twitter must be "taken care of". This one could go either way, but my money is dude lying at least a little to stir up some shit.

Assume this is, just found out that Trent Reznor quit Twitter (as if it mattered to him), so disappointing.
Not that surprised, dude fought real hard to change from his 90s persona, I'll never understand people like him, Marilyn Manson and even Eminem, guys, this is who you are, singing about killing your ex-wife while she's screaming in your car trunk, wanting to defile women and everything sacred, wanting to crush society in a nihilistic spergout - all of these is what made you into such huge stars. That manifest hatred and resentment, they sell, and it made you popular.
These idiots think you can kill your "innerdemons", lmao. No you can't. Your essence remains the same, your struggles will just make you frustrated and unhappy, and more importantly...
.... YOUR MUSIC WILL SUCK and you won't have the aggressive hateful fuel to write proper art.

No it was Rekieta Law that was banned in 1999. Then he ban evaded with Rekeita Media. He later renamed his Rekeita Media Channel Rekeita Law around the time the Twitter sale started. Then got that banned when he pissed off the troons.

What did Trent even say before he left?

Even if it’s fake, advertisers have spent the last 25 years doing nothing but finding brand new ways to fuck up the internet for the rest of us. Anybody who sides with them is probably a lizard person.

This is what I've found, funny how he decides now to leave the toxic environment even though Twitter's been that for years.
