   @druid @nyanide It would be funny if he actually did run his website into the ground acting like this.

     @k @druid If he is the process is taking way longer than it should to finish, lawyers and the new hires are stopping him from doing extremely detrimental shit

     @k @nyanide I'm absolutely convinced he will. Everyone acts like big websites are eternal but in reality a single stupid decision can spell doom. Just look at how hemorrhaged Tumblr is because they banned porn lol

     @druid @nyanide Tumblr is still alive, well, and just as mentally ill as it ever was.

     Less CP though so that's good.

     @druid @nyanide But yeah I think as soon as Elon bought Twitter he also gave up the artificial support it was getting from globohomo, so it doesn't have infinite respawns like other big sites do.

     Honestly I'd bet on BSky being the next big thing. Our guys hate it for obvious reasons but it's doing a lot of things right.

     @druid @nyanide It was a hive of teenage girl mental illness and it is still that. It hasn't changed much, it's just a new generation now

     @druid @k At least name snipes will become a thing of the past once bluesky comes around.. instead the terminally online will be forced to compete in the domain market which will run you a bit more than usernames that only cost a few hundred dollars

     @nyanide @k I don't actually know anything about this, you pay for names? I just nooticed a lot of people jumping ship from Twitter (actual people with noombers, not the small handful of misfits who came to fedi) is all

     @druid @k there are underground markets for cool usernames on popular websites, of course since these are underground and usually against TOS of the website in question you're buying a name for the status of the account holding the name is highly volatile especially if you've been given a hacked account, I've despised those markets for some time now they're extremely unorganized and usually the top dogs in there are haxormen

     @druid @nyanide You can choose to use your own domain for a username, a lot like Fedi. You don't have to pay unless you want to buy a domain

     @k @druid oh, yeah bloosky uses domain names for usernames instead of the traditional username system on centralized systems, which will pretty drastically change the game for the underground markets I mentioned earlier

     @nyanide @druid Idgaf about usernames anyway so that doesn't matter to me. It's just a cool little side feature.

     @nyanide @druid @k AI to squat or ditch domains based on expected value :niggamindblown:

     @Cyrillic @druid @k squatting has always been an issue, username squatting was just less legitimate
