Yea ... it's pretty easy get upset and negative about these things in the moment, especially if things get cleaned up.
But yea, calckey.social was always a kinda beta thing, which was perfectly fine for a young/experimental platform.
But this past week or two has really cemented its beta status and put a wet blanket on any excitement and good-will the platform had.
I kept my mastodon main anyway, but its things like this kinda reveal why mastodon is dominant. Platforms be tricky
Yeah 100% no shade on what they are doing. I think it's great. But I do want to be able to access my accounts regularly without major problems. I'll stick it out a little longer, mainly because I already lost all my posts migrating from Masto, and I don't want to lose all my posts again migrating back haha.
@hellerphant
Really vital point you make there. It illustrates the ways in which a dominant platform shapes the ecosystem to be more like it, especially when the ecosystem is one of interconnectedness.
Calckey offers full post migration from mastodon to calckey. Great. But mastodon doesn’t offer the reverse. Ok, don’t use mastodon, that’s shit. But everyone is already using mastodon and have their posts there. Ok, stay on mastodon then, safer!
