@mastodonmigration @samiamsam

People never thank you for warning them and admit they made a mistake not listening to you in the first place. Instead they get incandescently angry at the slightest hint of, "I told you so," or – if you say nothing – either double down and refuse to acknowledge any error or start claiming they always knew, depending on how stubborn they are.

@jackwilliambell @samiamsam

Very true.

@duncan_bayne @nazokiyoubinbou @mastodonmigration Ubuntu would be a better analogy.

@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @mastodonmigration Oh? I mean Ubuntu wouldn't be my first choice but I still see it as being head and shoulders above either macOS or Windows

@duncan_bayne @nazokiyoubinbou @mastodonmigration Right, but MacOS never pretended to be open or an alternative to the things people were fleeing from Microsoft. Ubuntu is the analogy because it rides on the story of Linux as liberating, but with capitalism.

I hate to use the word cuck, but people never learn. They will run straight for the next vulture capital financed illusion of a town square and get their faces eaten off yet once more

@patmikemid Its not just clout chasing. Many people today are open that they have careers in culture because they got on Twitter early and networked there. I think that was and is bad ethics and bad tactics but many of them make more money and get more recognition than I do and the conventional ways of making a living in those fields have dried up too.

@tehstu @mastodonmigration It will be good because as a member of the board he will stand to gain financially from this if there is any kind of exit. He will of course stay the course to “advocate for open social networks” but tragically his attempts will fall on deaf ears. Perhaps a book will result afterward.

@mastodonmigration this was never a secret to begin with.

this was clear from day1, but i guess its just a question who people consume their news from and whom they follow

@mastodonmigration Bain isn't just crypt VCs it's Mormon Republican megadonors.

@KarlHeinzHasliP @mastodonmigration and they invest heavily in Israeli defence companies.

@jackwilliambell @mastodonmigration @samiamsam So don't say I told you so, even if it is justified. Be a good person, keep your head cool, keep warning people, even if the result is anger.

@mastodonmigration I am shocked, this is my shocked face:
