Not quite. This was his ultimate tweet:

>This is my last straw. I give up. You can find a link to my new Mastodon profile on my site.

The tweet itself did not contain a link to http://www.paulgraham.com/, which contains a link to his Mastodon profile. Apparently that was enough to be suspended.

It doesn't even contain a link. It contains the mastodon handle (username and instance), but you can't click on it because it's not a link; you can paste it on the search bar of your own instance to follow him (and see some of his posts, if someone on the same instance has already followed him).

Paul Graham's mistake was he should have made an NFT of the link and posted that.

/s ...maybe? I honestly can't tell anymore

What was the last straw for PG?
