A quick apology to our new friends in the Mastodon world: we, the Twitter weirdos, are not just here as our former abode turns into a trainwreck we can't stop gawking at, we're also here right before a U.S. general election day, which always puts us on edge.

Well, a little closer to normal.

It's actually pretty amazing that a open source product developed by a tiny non-profit, running on a network of servers self-funded by volunteer administrator and moderators has managed to absorb some portion of one of the world's largest for-profit social networks.

It's a miracle the whole thing didn't collapse or catch fire.

Great job everyone.
