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 github.com/Vavassor/Tusky

@blinry @rixx @TQ please, do create issues for the features you miss most.

@daniel_bohrer @rixx @TQ @rami Yeah, me neither! Most of the people I deeply care about are here now, anyway! <3

@TQ @blinry I think even reducing activity to reactions xor status updates can help a lot in getting people to move.

@rixx And: This was exactly my intention, as well. The "people I got to make Mastodon accounts" counter is now: 10! \o/

@blinry It's the clever and beautiful content you provide as well as your cheerful disposition!

@winniehell @blinry @dasMaichen Ja! :D

(Doppel-Mention! /o\ Ich seh schon, das wird verwirrend! :P)

@blinry Ohne Doppel-Mention gehen Antworten kaputt, oder?

@rixx Same for me! :wink: (follow the @blinry!!!)

Also I thought I take the opportunity to try something new while I'm still young. :smile:
