#BlueSky’s blank “who me?” screen has me missing old Twitter’s #FailWhale
-
Gee, Bluesky devs ... am I, the user, really supposed to be seeing stuff like this? Am I somehow failing to vibe along with you? #FailWhale

Bei den heute andauernden Ausfällen von Bluesky denke nostalgisch an den #Failwhale von #Twitter zurück. (The Atlantic: The Story of Twitter's Fail Whale: archive.is/iFY3F)

There was a *lot* of schadenfreude going around #Twitter X earlier this month about #cloudcomputing outages. I guess what goes around comes around. Where's the #failwhale when you need it... 🐳

@Moore I'm talking about all languages with standards bodies, but yes, TC39 is particularly #failwhale adjacent. There are lots of reasons, but the post-ES4 explosion of veto players at the hands of strict consensus sealed the deal:

„Fehler im Nachrichtenstream“ ist der neue #FailWhale… .#ChatGPT

Early Twitter users made the #FailWhale a meme.
It used to be a common thing, and people kept going back…

Oh internet mens. Why? Get a random ping from a rather hot guy. I try not to get too excited. You know how these things go. And there it is. One of his opening shots is him taking a hit off a crack pipe. Sigh. Sorry, internet d00d. No #PNP here. Says so in my profile, if you’d looked.

Wow, @bsky.app really gives you (positive) Twitter 2012 vibes at the moment. Welcome to all emigrants, nice to have you here. #Bluesky #Twitter #Retro #FailWhale 🦋

I find it funny & lame how much people forgotten that #FailWhale was actually a fun part of OG Twitter and nowadays detractors celebrates when Blue sky gets a hiccup as it is a crime that people are looking for Twitter-like vibe.
Wuss generation everywhere.

Nawww, looks like Bluesky is having its first #FailWhale event. How quickly they grow up...

Re: #FedEx #package to #Saskatchewan. For those not familiar, we have #Alberta on our western border (and British Columbia is on the other side of #Alberta), and on our eastern border we have #Manitoba.
Here's the tracking. It arrives in B.C., is put on a truck (it's not an air shipment) and is next seen in Alberta. It's put on another truck, and sent all the way through Saskatchewan to Manitoba. And it will eventually be put on a truck to come back to Saskatchewan...

#Crowdstrike: the new and improved #FailWhale 😆

@DaveMasonDotMe Yup. I Federated my Threads account, posted a few hashtags I follow on Mastodon to improve my odds of seeing them, and still don't see my post from Threads. #failwhale

Bye bye 👋 free speech
Elon’s plan to kill twitter is going according to plan 😡 #failwhale

PREFECT! #RangerBobRadio #ai #FailWhale Looks like those DJ's won't have to worry about loosing a job here.

Somebody crafted this artwork weeks ago and I'd laugh out loud if they re-title it ”X Fail Whale” now.

#Centralization is bad. The current massive #fail-ure of #Twitter is the best example. The infamous #FailWhale has returned and is bigger than ever.
And to be honest, I don't shed a single tear for #Twitter. It was always a questionable proprietary site before #ElonMusk, but under his rule it became much, much worse. #Proprietary software gives a small owner class unjust power over the many.
Let's embrace #decentralizaion and #FreeSoftware instead.

I always thought the cute little elephant - the #Errorphant, as @esther would have it - banging away in frustration in the Mastodon "not found" page, our very own version of the #failwhale, was a representation of users frustrated with Mastodon's quirks and oddities.
Now I realize it doesn't represent users at all: it represents Mastodon instance admins throwing a tantry.
