I've been here a few months, and while there hasn't yet been much in the way of #kidlit conversation, I hope that will change soon. Children's book creators, youth librarians, and other literacy-lovers, please say hello!

🎉 Spoutible has skyrocketed to the 25th position on Google Play's top charts in the category of social! 🥳

You know what horrifies me? What we white folks pass as Mac and Cheese.
11:50 PM - Jul 03, 2023
I do, and I am not giving up. Over the weekend, I saw thousands of people interacting and enjoying themselves, which made me feel good. I will not let a bunch of trolls discourage me from providing a safe haven from abuse, targeted harassment, and disinformation.
Be Human @NearlyImpossibleI do hope @cbouzy realizes how much support he has behind him 💞💕10:42 PM - Jul 03, 2023

Hey, late night Spoutonians a few years back I wrote a damn good romance novella. It's on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Sec...

It is funny to me that some who didn't trust Spoutible's safety decided to leave by trusting Spoutible's safety rules would get them banned.

Now that Twitter is 'working' again I just went back, and after a while realized that, after getting the info updates I was looking for, I was spending almost all my time fighting and blocking. I'm scrappy and enjoy jumping into the thick of it but Musk has wrecked it completely. Transitioning here.

While we're experiencing technical difficulties, I am now forced to hold back on some memes until I am able to upload. Yall have been spared for a night 😂🤪
Assuming this gets corrected by tomorrow, anyone know if #MemeMondays are a thing? 🤔

We are holding up well, considering the circumstances. In the morning, we will get started getting search back online and fixing the profile 404 errors. I don't expect the wave of new users to keep flooding in like this for much longer. Elon will reverse course soon.

Sorry, we switched back to the old timeline. Some people saw the identical ten spouts over again. We must debug and determine why because it works fine on our staging server.

The timeline echo conversation today has me thinking back to the shortest tenured Spoutible feature "who viewed your profile."
Good times.
Good times.

In response to Rebecca.
The Canada fires, death dealing heat in the southern USA, etc., etc. Every year it gets worse. Sadly, it’s the shape of things to come. Parts of the world will become uninhabitable because of extreme heat. Mass migrations will happen. We waited and fucked around too long.

To be clear, besides Bluesky, I support the other Twitter alternatives. Of course, I want people to use Spoutible, but I hope the others will succeed. The reason why I am not supporting Bluesky is because I have seen how Jack treats marginalized communities. Bluesky will be just as toxic as Twitter.
05:38 PM - Jul 02, 2023
Hey y'all I want you to remember this (first/2nd wavers and our newest wave who ran from Twitter). In the grand scheme of things these short outages are nothing compared to Twitter in the first year of it's life in 2005 when it was down for literal hours.

It will take us a few days to add enough resources to handle this insane surge of new users. Spoutible is self-funded with the help of the Spoutible community. No VCs or billionaires are funding us, so if you want to help us keep going, please consider donating $5.
