@aral think its just one analysis.
@nosherwan Indeed; but it seems like less of a done deal at the moment. Still, it’s a choice between shit and shitter.
@aral What a friggin roller coaster! But like the article says, not the first time. I just hope a significant number of people will have had time to discover the benefits of Mastodon and aren’t solely controlled by EM’s actions.
@axbom That’s my hope too :)
@aral given his tweets over the past couple days it's pretty easy to imagine he isn't serious. The deal won't close until October, and my understanding is that he can't say disparaging things about Twitter in that time-frame.
@aral Keep in mind that that's your typical speculative economy-pages article, though - if you read carefully, you'll notice that nowhere does it reference any kind of actual indication from Musk that he's getting cold feet, it's only inferring from "market conditions".
@aral I am still retiring of twitter to move my content here.
I will not be the only one.
@aral Does this count as market manipulation?
