    • Cash grab on an old name and hoping people pony up the $20 to join it.
    • Not using ActivityPub or ATProto.

    Yeah, it’s already DOA.

    If anyone is serious about creating a new centralised social network these days, they have already lost.

      It may well be intended as a serious attempt but personally I’m just going to view it as trolling/a gimmick, in which case I don’t care how shit the actual platform is. Seems to be more about making a point against Musk than getting a serious userbase.

      Would be funny if Twitter/X Supports ATProto. Maybe also don’t give up the X Brand and you could interact with Bluesky users or twitter or X Handles and if you Bridge to the Fediverse yeah that works to. I could really delete my x/Twitter Profile and say. Hey My new Handle is my bridged Mastodon Account.
