The Mastodon project Twitter helpfully provided a list of existing projects that are robust and already fairly popular. https://twitter.com/MastodonProject/status/1204774808015327232 https://twitter.com/MastodonProject/status/12047748080153272...

It would keep a hypothetical Twitter.com instance from causing what happened when AOL brought millions of people online.
