#72That didn't age well. Not even a full hour. I can't even think of a food item that would age that quickly.

#73Wow. PG did not even post any links, he pretty much just said "I have a Mastodon account." And just like that, banned. Looks like now you're not allowed to so much as mention that you use other websites on the internet besides Twitter.
Elon has made it clear that these blatant attempts at ban evasion are not allowed.

#78I would love to talk to one of the people that kept saying “you all don’t understand. Musk runs billion dollar companies, he knows what he is doing. He will fix Twitter” now that this is happening. What is the grand plan now in their world view?

#79I think Twitter is about to jump the shark. This is insane.
Unbanning the alt-right wasn't jumping the shark? Firing over half the employees wasn't jumping the shark? Promoting COVID misinformation wasn't jumping the shark? Yeah, he finally started banning journalists, but he's been making the place unwelcome for anyone who isn't a Trump supporter for a long as heck time.
If you are just now asking if it's going to jump the shark, and I mean this not to be sarcastic or mean, but in genuine hope for the future: Please spend some time asking yourself why banning PG was the last straw for you, and not any of the crazy stuff prior.
Let's make this the last time we let hero worship blind us to the realities on the ground.
