@mikestreety Read that this morning and it is a bit gloomy! I think a bigger threat to Mastodon is Twitter collapsing completely. I'm quite happy for it to continue and keep the hoards of pond life away from here.

@mikestreety interesting take. I don't necessarily disagree with Justin's concerns and hope a sustainable model allows Mastodon to continue. This quote is quite pertinent to the onboarding process too:"Communities are not siloed independent bubbles. People are Venn diagrams of lots of communities and interests. Selecting a username can be difficult, deciding which community you want as part of your identity—even if you can change it—is too much."I fear this is a common blocker for many.
