Let’s review what Elon Musk has done just in 2023:
- Changed Twitter to X.
- Plans to implement a small monthly payment for everyone using the X system.
- Plans to collect user biometric information, job, and education history for “safety, security, and identification purposes.”
- Brings back shadowbanning.
- Uses user data to train AI models.
- Limits replies to verified users only.
Elon has made so many terrible changes to Twitter that I can’t remember what the breaking point was for me.
Fortunately, there’s a lot more competition in Twitter-like social media platforms. Mastodon may currently hold the position as the most established platform, but there are numerous other services competing to become the next preferred place for online users.

Most people don’t care
That right there is the shitty truth
Artists want their art to be seen by as many people as possible. Their livelihood probably depends on it.
It’s as if it’s a big problem to manage one more platform between all the ones they already do. Lot’s of apps and options to just automatically cross post content to multiple platforms too or just mirror mastodon to Twitter or vice versa.
At this point, ignoring or avoiding another platform where so many people already are is just laziness.
Braindead comment. It’s like people who say shit like this have never been part of an online community
An asshole bought the social media site you use and you haven’t convinced dozens of friends and all the other people whose posts you like seeing to switch to a different platform???
