    Do it. Everyone in their right mind should.

    Everyone who reads this and still has an X account needs to do some souls searching as to why. If you just keep it to read some particular posts consider using a nitter instance instead.

      They need to think of an alternative way to reach their racist voters.

    So, they didn’t drop “X” after Elon’s Nazi salute? Shame.

    I’m still a little amazed Twitter hasn’t devolved into just another Truth Social, at this point. Why is anyone even still using it, outside of Elon’s muskrats?

    Use mastodon instead!

    They can set up their own fediverse instance. The EU, Germany and the Netherlands have done so. Beyond that, they can automatically mirror posts to Bluesky or wherever they need to.
