Might be a hard sell for me since less than 10% of the accounts that I follow on Twitter have any kind of Mastodon presence, and toot per tweet volume is probably considerably less than 10%.

I can get a lot more value from a good Twitter client than I can from a good Mastodon client.

On the other hand, I left twitter quite a while ago and I was a tweetbot user. I’ll be purchasing Ivory the day it’s available since I’m really waiting for a mastodon client that offers the tweetbot experience.

Purchasing or subscribing? Because I'd wager that Ivory will be on a yearly subscription basis like Tweetbot is now.

I’ll even subscribe. You can see how long I haven’t been on Twitter, I missed the move I subscription on tweetbot ;)

That is true for now, but in increase in mastodon usage is really mind blowing.

It is hard to believe such a big social network to migrate overnight, but it has happened before with digg moving to reddit.
