Think the Spout image on functional clicks should be the same way up as it is in the logo. A spout isn't a droplet it's an.....uplet, and conveniently reminiscent of a lightbulb moment when seen the same way as in the logo. @cbouzy

What will it take for the BBC to be on Spoutible?
Their correspondent on misinfo says she's been bombarded with death threats since reporting on Twitter letting the platform become a haven for trolls & abuse. Does the BBC not understand that its content attracts audiences into that same danger?

I don't trust Jack Dorsey or BlueSky. On his watch I saw people abused for being gay, transgender or having mental health issues, & suggestions they kill themselves. Zero action from moderators. Then: “Elon is the singular solution I trust. I trust his mission to extend the light of consciousness"!

It would be cool to see the team behind the scenes at Spoutible - surely they must be gathering for a 1st month birthday celebration? I want it to be revealed it was all done from a coffee shop over the road from Twitter HQ.

I keep hoping @cbouzy is holding back some big hitters from joining Spoutible, until he's confident the platform can cope with the traffic.

Did a fair bit of coaxing people to come over from Twitter; particularly public figures. My secret disappointment list is growing though - they must just love being on an abusive dangerous platform. [And it's not as if they can't have both]

Echo (Echo Echo Echo) Free from the secretive manipulations of algorithms, Spouts only get promoted by us. So if you more than just 'like' it, and find it interesting, puzzling, or useful - Echo as often as you like.

Idea for @cbouzy , I run by us all. I've Spouted how much I love the visual internationalism our flags bring to profiles & likes. But/And amongst timeline variants could we click countries or combos of them? I may need a 'UK day' for news reasons, others may be expats after a 'home culture' fix.

I love that when I'm half way through writing a Spout and have to check something on the site to complete it, the Spout is still there in half-written draft when I re-click New Spout.

Beware famous names arriving on Spoutible without Blue Ticks. Most are surely protective enough of their reputation that they'd seek blue tick status first. Though....where's the obvious click to seek that?

The BBC Charter requires it to:
“have regard to the competitive impact of the BBC's activities on the wider market”
I believe the BBC should now pay attention to diversifying the considerable benefit that the presence of its content confers on social media platforms. i.e. not just using Twitter.

I kind of love that Spoutible spellcheck still thinks its own name is spelled incorrectly.

Just been over to Twitter for something, and quickly got sucked into the toxicity. It will be such a win to leave them all talking amongst themselves. Hope the migration continues apace. For now though, I feel like I need someone to hose me down!

Welcome to all those flipping the bird since Feb 2023.

8pm EST Dilemma!! Do I do my bit for the war effort, and stay asleep at 1am UK time, reducing the load on SPOUTIBLE? OR will it be like General Election nights: just can't resist staying up to see how it's going...?
05:47 PM - Feb 09, 2023
I'm loving the flags on SPOUTIBLE Profiles, and also visible on Likes lists on a post when clicking mini roundels. Really cool affirmation that the world turned up to talk.

I know you're busy @cbouzy , lol. But...there's no denying a bit of star power accelerates social media. Just saw Morgan Fairchild joined and has a blue tick. Could there be a click on the left panel to see a list of Blue Tick people? [May only need to be a temporary thing during launch months]

What did SESAME STREET know about the balloon?!
Questions must be asked!

Hi folks!! Just passed 5pm in the UK and finished work, called in to see how everyone's doing, and how Spoutible copes with a Saturday. Impressed to find it all superfast. Another obstacle cleared with ease (and I'm sure hard work by Chris and the team).

Where's 'Mayor Pete'? Get him on here. I'm in the UK and I know who he is. Would that we had politicians even half as articulate.

Spoutible has been super fast this morning, but....America's getting up. Let's see what happens after waffles, clam chowder, or whatever it is you crazy cats get up to. 😉 Did Chris fix it....?
08:59 AM - Feb 03, 2023
My user experience this morning on Spoutible. Super fast!
Now, let's see how today goes, when America wakes up 😆

I like that when you PIN a SPOUT it also remains (in duplicate) in its original place, so you still get an accurate profile history chronologically.
05:10 AM - Feb 02, 2023
Justice for the SPOUTIBLE whale!! Their clever cuteness surely drew a lot of us in a couple of months ago. Currently a bit small up in that left hand corner. I'd buy the t-shirt. When Chris has finished tinkering with servers, lol.

Did a Spout just in order to try the EDIT FUNCTION which works really well. Super speedy on here this morning, after yesterday's very laggy start. Convinced this will take off. Happy days.

SPOUTIBLE is super fast this morning! - none of the glitching of yesterday. It is 9am in the UK (meaning 4am in New York) so let's see how it is when Americans are up and about. Hey - why not have a sleep in guys?! 😊
