That they are winding down the "Forkiverse" is fine. Nothing has to last forever. But with the hosts all admitting that they mostly just rented a Mastodon instance they then didn't moderate and use I wonder how it could be labelled an "experiment". What was the hypothesis?

And when I heard Kevin Roose just saying "yeah there's thousands of accounts but since nobody built a business there we can just pull the plug without a second thought" it because clear that - at least for Mr Sloplord - it never was about creating a social space but about creating a mall.
