Episode notes

Instagram's success was largely the importing of people's Twitter social graphs through their API. And now they're coming around and killing whatever the thing is that we're calling Twitter now, whatever like, you know, horrible shell. The whole point is people can make different decisions. There is no one decision about whether they will federate with Facebook. Every instance gets to decide that for themselves. So there you go. Although I don't actually know if this is one of the questions. We'll see.
