Toot

@mstrohm @kissane I think the Linux comparison is doubly fitting. One for the harmful "works for me" attitude that limits popular uptake, but on the other hand it also shows that just because it doesn't have the popular uptake doesn't mean "the window is closing" and it's not worth having. Even as niche system for a small group of people it can stay viable and thrive for many decades, and it might even infaltrate many other places (servers, phones, firmware) without people even noticing. While I would like Mastodon to take over Twitter's inheritance, I think there might still be a long-term future even if it doesn't.
