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.
