@shrikant thankyou, someone did send me the first link and it worked!
@AnirbanM I would recommend reading 'The Tiger Throne' (if you can manage to get your hands on it) which is an abridged but we'll explained version of the original. It's in English, helps contextualise a lot of things in the movie.
Link for the book I'm referring to -

@nitin Hi from Bangalore 👋🏻
@electron_greg @Memeghnad Wonder if Mr Musk would consider buying some of these mainstream media channels and burning those to the ground as well. He'd be doing us a huge favour!
@Memeghnad maybe that's the detox we all need!
The way things stand as of now (of course as someone who isn't a part of Twitter - the company I say this with an outsiders perspective of all the hearsay I've been reading, on Twitter ironically; keeping in mind that most engineering teams seem have quit) it doesn't seem too likely it will be standing for too long.
Linking one of the Twitter discussion threads I read - https://twitter.com/nitashatiku/status/1593399704636620800?t=cXl_Rdhlp5_SkXc5YLv76A&s=19
I wonder though, what the future of this site would be, if it does start to 'crash and burn' as it were. Elon did speak about appointing a CEO, I sense that perhaps Jack might step in (or at least might have to eventually). He did found Twitter, don't think he'd want it to end badly.
We'll have to wait and watch though.
@4f_koultouras thankyou! I'll try this.
Which is the best instance to join - Indian current affairs centric with a mix of general pop culture/memes. Or does that not matter? Also, how does one switch instances?
Hello everyone from #India who are just joining in!
We are using #MastIndia as a gathering point to find other folks. Please give your #introduction there.
Two things you can do right away:
1) Just start talking to random people, don't worry too much about how this place works. It's like birdsite, only better.
2) Use hashtags to explore content :)
(Pls boost for good karma)
Hubble Space Telescope shows 2 of the galaxies in the galactic triplet Arp 248 — also known as Wild's Triplet — which lies around 200 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo. The 2 galaxies visible in this image — which flank a smaller, unrelated background spiral galaxy — seem to be connected by a luminous bridge. This elongated stream of stars and interstellar dust is known as a tidal tail, and it was formed by the mutual gravitational attraction of the 2 galaxies.
Given Twitter's seemingly bright prospects, I decided to get on here and give it a try. I was wondering if there's any good tutorial/explainer video on how best to use this space and something that covers all aspects of it?
Also, is there any quick way to find people I already follow on Twitter and follow them here as well?
