Description

Elon Musk took over Twitter on Oct. 27, 2022. Time to pop the champagne corks and celebrate. What should’ve been a day of celebration has turned into anything but. Currently the state of Twitter is chaotic. Twitter users are jumping ship, various Twitter executives have left [like those who oversaw content moderation and security], and decision-making is shall we say indecisive. Is there another alternative to Twitter? Yes, and its name is Mastodon?
