   yes, a half-abandoned Mastodon branch with the revenue of a hot dog stand but the debt of a small country is definitely worth $6 billion

     @philip I guarantee you that “research and development” means “lined someone’s pockets for nothing in return”

     @thomasfuchs A half-abandoned Mastodon branch, with an annual R&D spend of nearly 10 million dollars.

     Imagine the kind of development that could be made if any team serious about the Fediverse got that money instead.

     @thomasfuchs They really want us to believe they paid $13k in for R&D and $600 in marketing in 2022 for a Mastodon rebrand
