This week, we're joined by Alex Hern, UK Tech editor at the Guardian, to talk about Mastodon, the new ‘alternative twitter’ people have been moving to in the wake of Elon Musk’s twitter take over, and the very real threat of the platform becoming dysfunctional.
We will be discussing the history of Mastodon, Alex’s experiences on the platform and where it differs from twitter in terms of objectives and positions. We’ll use his experience (documented in his guardian article) to discuss whether Mastodon is a suitable twitter alternative, or whether it’s simply attempting to revive what’s already dead - can Mastodon really survive a social media economy that’s pivoting to video anyway?
