Bluesky and Pixelfed are pretty good arguments for at minimum logging out of Twitter/Facebook/Instagram if not going all the way and closing your accounts there entirely.
And I bet Meta’s recent Linux crackdown is going to start steering people away from Facebook and Instagram to boot.
Too little, too late, but it’s still better than never at all.
I wonder why Twix didn’t catch on as a mockunominal for that social media platform. Mars or whoever owns the brand missed an opportunity. On the other hand, I haven’t had one in a long time, but I recall Twix being a particularly delicious treat, so perhaps it is best that name not be besmirched.
X-odus has ring to it. It might just catch on.
But then you have to acknowledge the name change.
Can we just call it the Quwitter?
People finally leaving Twitter en masse?
Great, glad ya’ll finally got the memo.
Anyway, Elon and his cronies have haphazardly taken over basically every single civillian Federal Government computer system, while everyone was struggling with the extreme potential inconvenience of not using a social media platform run by and for fucking Nazis.
Priorities, amirite?
Sure it is. Will believe it when I see it. Too many people are far too happy to ignore the Nazi and suck at his teet.
I know way too many people who only used Twitter for sports. But after /r/nfl and /r/nba and all the sports subreddits blocked Twitter, I think a lot of the organic sports activity will die off.
I’ve been using Bluesky. It has gotten a lot busier since Musk did the Nazi Salute
Twitter is alive and well with the users they are intending to reach.
It’s kind of fine if it becomes just another Truth social though, isn’t it? Kind of a containment zone. The big problem is if it’s the one place where everyone is.
It’s good to have competition anyway. Twitter was getting too popular. There should be lots of options. Even if some of those options cater to a specific crowd. MAGAs, teens, people who think Tiananmen Square is just a geographical location.
