Star wars meme: Mon Mothma (Mastodon) stands before 5 other men/admirals (Writefreely, Lemmy, Peertube, Pixelfed, Friendica). She says: "The emperor has made a critical error and the time for our attack has come."

Oh... I just thought that something more specific happened... Ok!
No worries. Just the usual downfall of digital society. No special occasion. ๐

Who would have thought that dumping money on something just because it is cool, would not be a good idea!
