    Can Mastodon posts be shared and embedded here (no idea what it is or how it works) so I can continue getting likes from what other people say?

    A Discord copy with very specialized channels and I don't get how it would be a Twitter substitute. My spam account is on the Blue Sky Beta waiting list to see how that looks, but I was late to that party and they are slammed with requests. Really want to see what media organizations turn to.

    Kind of hard to be a legit Twitter replacement when it's basically just WordPress or Discord version of Twitter: they provide the software, up to someone else to do the rest
