I wonder how hard Twitter will try to find all the Mastodon servers (other than Mastodon.social) in people's bios?

As software engineers, we could guess how it could pretty easily be automated to be effectively exhaustive.

Questions are whether there's a will to do that, how decimated their engineering resources are, and what state their culture is in.

I don't know the fediverse protocol but wouldn't it be really easy to check if a link is part of it?

I assume so. Though I expect that this is another one of those things that Musk's attention will wander off somewhere else in a week or two.
