[Air-L] Migration to Mastodon

Wonderful to see so many people (re)embracing open source/non-corporate 
social media etc. Ultimately alternatives that don't place us at the 
whim of one oligarch or the other are the best solution.

One question however - the thrust of the Musk criticism is that he will 
be too libertarian. With that in mind, where does the assumption come 
from that he will shut off access to academic twitter? Has there been a 
statement? It would seem to go against his anti-censorship ethos. Or is 
it more that it would not be in his interest to serve an overwhelmingly 
left-wing academia?

Anything tangible as to known intentions of already concluded Twitter 
actions would be helpful.

Thanks,
Andrew
