Twitter rival Mastodon has grown eight times its size in a matter of weeks, going from approximately 300,000 users in October to 2.5 million in November, according to a blog post by the platform’s founder, Eugen Rochko.

The eye-popping growth figure comes as a wave of Twitter users have announced their plans to switch services amid the erratic leadership of Twitter’s new owner, Elon Musk. “We are excited to see Mastodon grow and become a household name in newsrooms across the world, and we are committed to continuing to improve our software to face up to new challenges that come with rapid growth and increasing demand,” Rochko wrote.

Then it made that practice an explicit policy on Sunday, before a vocal backlash forced Musk to suspend the policy less than 24 hours later. In addition to affecting Mastodon, the new policy had also covered links to Facebook, Instagram and Truth Social, and said users may be suspended for displaying their handles for any of those platforms in their Twitter profiles.

you gonna get banned now?

Ha ha what about the dying CNN?

It's a terribly implemented service that is far too complex for the AVERAGE user who anyone with the IQ of a rock understands builds your platform.

ICantStandYous RelocationBosss proofofwork1 Mastodon is the new Air America Radio and, as before, no one cares.

Good. The leftist can create themselves another echo chamber. Enjoy.

Gee that’s sweet !!

So... its the New Parler...

Uh oh...you're gonna get banned for saying the M word.

I would try mastodon very much if it didn’t confuse me in the first place of the server stuff

CNN not looking into security concerns and server owner's ability to read private DM's ? - wow .. this is kinda funny when it goes wrong - but media wins either way - build up, tear down ... if it bleeds it leads

If you beleive in Mastodon you should buy it now. It is your only chance of survival…msm

Say all you want. Elon still my hero

Never heard of it.

It's actually Just JOJO from jerz and 150,000 phones!

Lies 😂🤣

It’s an online version of a psych ward

What about the border CNN?

Now we know where all the twitter bots remove by the algorithm went

It's like going from far negative vibes to positive vibes. Takes 30 days to break tweeting habits eh.

More evidence that the left do not want equality, do not believe in democracy, so not respect or care about their fellow Americans. Literally nothing any leftist politician or leftist voter does ever promotes anything but self entitled little crybabies.

MohammadMehdiKarami 22 y/o is a young prisoner who was tortured into a forced confession. He has been sentenced to death by the Islamic Regime for seeking freedom. Be his voice before he suffers the same fate as MohsenShekari and MajidrezaRahnavard.

Doing better than cnn+ I guess…

The echo is so amazing you'll think it is actually your own voice!

lol, now only has grow 180 times to catch twitter

Fun little echo chamber

No thanks Mastondon is a bunch of wHiners about Elon...not stimulating at all. Just too small.

That's the same sh1t as Truth social but for the far-left.

Later it has the investors with the mindset of Twitter's, from Mastodon but it's Twitter soon, then move to Megalodon.

If only I understood Mastadon. LOL That server stuff is weirding me out.

Such a large name for such small minded platform. Compensating for something?

People leaving Twitter has triggered the right wing trolls.

Mastodon is to much work. Post is better

you and all your liberal media friends can go over there no questions asked. You just have to take all the FBI with you

Had a look, didn’t find anything interesting, will wait for now,

Also Gab had this path. Where's Gab now?

False news again!!!!

are y’all still crying about Twitter allowing people with different opinions to share their opinions? Move on already

😂
