The thing that made me switch to Mastodon was @blinry shutting down his Twitter account. I enjoy reading his thoughts and writeups and projects and I didn't want to miss them. As long as we're still using Twitter, we're not giving others an incentive to switch.

@blinry @rixx wow. Courageous... I'm not yet ready for this step, but it's a thought I'll keep in mind.

@rixx @TQ Well, specifically, @blinry announced to shut it down for a week as an experiment. Which was also the thing that lead to me trying Mastodon.

@rixx @blinry @rami This is... a pretty neat idea! I'll have to wait for a better app for android, though. Tusky lacks boatloads of features.

@rami @blinry @rixx @TQ indeed, Tusky is a bit rough on the edges, but it's already a decent client (and tbh, the only one that was usable on my system…) And I guess it will get smoother once more people start using it and submit issues and pull-requests https://github.com/Vavassor/Tusky
