    Got kicked out recently... no reason why, cannot login, password recovery does not work and won't be able to use the same @ if willing to sign up again because it is "already taken". This looks to me like if my account has been stolen in some way a couple of months ago but I am not able to get it back again since help is just not working. Too bad.

    Bastyon is a great alternative to Twitter since it does not ask users for personal email or phone number and it bypasses the censorship that traditional social medias apply. It is growing fast and I like the idea of a place with real freedom of speech
