More complaining about birdsite
It's weird in that I've just noticed that in all my interactions with Twitter, access to it has been *hostile*. It's like there's a security team around the perimeter, and all the times I've managed to get in I feel like I've been super sneaky, and a guard change cuts off one path, so I have to route around for another.

It looks like I can do *everything* from Mastodon's clutter-free web UI, and I'm finding a plethora of mobile clients that (while not perfect) are able to do everything I need. I presume that's because Mastodon's API is so open, and it wasn't built to be hostile to developers like Twitter seems to be more and more.

It took Mastodon having such an open UI for me to realize how hard it was to do anything on Twitter. Mobile apps seem to be all crashy and terrible, it's just a matter of finding the least worst for my own use cases. The best I have right now lets me check and post from multiple accounts, plus cross-account rt and like. But it crashes often, I can't see likes, and of course can't see polls.
