Getting tired of these articles softballing the leaders of these companies, and then turning around and crapping on the open-source, federated alternatives.

But its the media, specifically the verge. They're going to defend the status quo, regardless of whats happening.

    The reality is that normies don't want to spend that extra little effort to figure out something like Mastodon. They want it fed to them. And Mastodon isn't even hard to figure out - it just lacks a lot of the features that Twitter has but if Twitter is borked, what's the point of those features?
