    Awesome. They can stay busy fighting each other while we happily go on without them over here on the fediverse.

      I’m just worried this could result in a ruling that will fuck up the fediverse somehow.

        Eh, I don’t think any one company can own the concept of microblogging. If Twitter and Tumblr both existed for a long time and there were no lawsuits then this is just a nothing burger, no?

            Never discount the possibility of American courts deciding something which is horribly damaging for the world of technology.

      yeah, this feels like a walking advertisement for the fediverse.
