no matter how you feel about The Donald, I think many of us can agree that today's events constitute a gross abuse of power by Twitter Inc, and are a microcosm of the broader problems of centralized media. many of us have expressed a desire to migrate, but it is unclear where to.

under this tweet i'll be collecting a few examples of people dissatisfied with the Twitter status quo

No matter what happens, it's been great, friends, and I hope that our time continues together, here or somewhere else

I know everyone is happy that Trump is suspended, but you should also be concerned that a social media company has more power than our highest democratically elected official

Going to follow my own advice to get a lot more comfortable with distributed, uncensorable, and federated systems of communication this year.

This will not end here. @jack knows that this ends elsewhere. You will have a distributed database that lives nowhere in particular behind an elliptic curve. Or on a rival platform that Trump owns in the Cayman Islands. Etc.

Keep our friends close, and enemies on platform Sam. twitter.com/samharrisorg/statu

Twitter may ban me for this but I willingly accept that fate: Your decision to permanently ban President Trump is a serious mistake.

The Ayatollah can tweet, but Trump can’t. Says a lot about the people who run Twitter.
