At this point we can already describe the management that Elon Musk has carried out on Twitter as disastrous, where workers are falling en masse and morale within the company is at an absolute minimum, to the point that there are growing rumors that this was Elon’s plan all along.
However, it has been observed how some users who are trying to invite others to Mastodon, the current alternative to Twitter, are not being able to publish some links on the social network. Specifically, all those links that lead to “joinmastodon.com” are being blocked by the platform.
It is true that the main address is in a .org domain, so that the first conclusion we could reach is that it is a false address. However, this address has a direct redirect to joinmastodon.org, while if we take a look at the WHOISboth addresses have been registered by Mastodon GmbH, the parent company of Mastodon.
This is a strange situation, sinceif Twitter wanted to block access to Mastodon, it would have blocked all addresses, but the fact that at least one of them is blocked already means something, since these blockages do not appear exactly by accident. It is possible that in the next few hours this blockade will be lifted, or instead, all addresses will be blocked.
