![Eugen Rochko @Gargron@mastodon.social:
It's the third time I am receiving what I can only generously assume to be an automated e-mail from #WSocial trying to convince me, the original founder (and still active advisor and proponent) of one of their competitors, to start posting on their platform.
A screenshot of an e-mail with the subject "We'd love to invite you to W" that reads: "Hi Eugen, I've been following your work around Mastodon gGmbH. When we started discussing which creators should help shape the next chapter of W, your name came up immediately. Over the past few weeks, we've welcomed Europe's leading public institutions, political leaders and major media organisations to W—including the European Commission, European Parliament, European Council, European Central Bank, President Ursula von der Leyen, Christine Lagarde, António Costa, as well as media organisations such as Der Spiegel, Blick, WELT, Heise and AFP. Our next focus is Culture. Rather than simply inviting creators to join another social platform, we're inviting a small group of creators, filmmakers, artists, musicians, athletes, authors and public voices to help shape what W becomes. I've attached a short overview explaining our vision and what we're building together. If this resonates with you, I'd be delighted to personally help you get started and hear your thoughts. Looking forward to hearing from you. We'd love to invite you to W All the best, [Name redacted]"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:oio4hkxaop4ao4wz2pp3f4cr/bafkreicamwy4iqgaxw6k67qizfhqqm5nebs2cnyfmrw7yviw5y5lryztqu)

wait, what's even funnier is this news dropped right when platformer released that interview with gargron telling bluesky to abandon atproto
this is honestly funny if you think about it, but it's also not, just one of the many cases where activitypub's lack of data portability isn't great

prime example of the issue with activitypub's architecture
the founder of Mastodon is shown to have 0 followers, 0 following accounts, and 0 posts. I have replied to the thread he made and somehow the account is still not indexed even a little bit

gargron helping threads do activitypub federation only to have mastodon.social temporarily blocked by threads is fucking funny

the non-technical problem is that the project leader, eugen 'website boy' gargron, is convinced against all odds that he's a temporarily embarrassed tech founder, that mastodon is a work of his solitary genius, and that it's going to make him a millionaire any day now

a lot of it could probably have been avoided if gargron hadn't shown up and decided to advocate just. ignoring laws lol
