sincere question: if you’re still using twitter, what is it that’s so important to justify actively supporting a platform that enables pedophiles?
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 days ago
I don’t use twitter, but the reason people still do is the same reason people still use reddit.
It’s where the people are. Normally this is the part where I use some big exaggerated example of what COULD be happening on twitter and they’d still use it. However, saying “They would still use use it if it catered to pedophiles and nazis” is not only true, because they are, but it’s also the most exaggerated example I can think of.
No matter what twitter does, people will still use them, BECAUSE people use them. Twitter has something like 375million people, while Mastadon has varying reported numbers, but I’m seeing 7million, 10million or 12million depending on who’s talking. That’s still a far cry from 375million.
The hard part is figuring out how many of those 375million are bots.

i suspected as much, and have said so. i was just hoping maybe an actual twitter user would come out and try to defend that bullshit. i know, tall order on lemmy

FOMO related to the people on the platform, FUD about other platforms, people thinking if they left would make Elon even more right wing, people being shamed into being apolitical thus leaving X would mean a political stance, etc.

Artists I follow post mostly either on X or Instagram, which I don’t find to be any better. All that have mastodon or bluesky accounts I’ve switched over, but many do not.
But I haven’t actually tweeted anything for something over a decade now?

They are pedophiles and Nazis. Remember half voted for the guy so there is at least that many that don’t care.

I kept mine active but haven’t used it since Musk took over. I just changed my name and bio to my Mastodon account so people could find me. I used it for work and had a lot of people find my content through it, so I didn’t want to just kill it. I also didn’t want someone claiming my username because I use the same one on pretty much all of my work socials. It got to the point last week that I’d rather not be associated with the site, even if people know it’s just to point you to my Mastodon. Hitting that delete button felt good, but I wish I had done it back in 2022.

I use it to promote my pron site. No offense to lemmy users but we’re not the type of people that pay for such content.

and you’re cool with twitter not doing shit about the pedophilia?
Bbbbbbbbbbb@lemmy.world 2 days ago
I still have 2 twitter accounts. My first one I am actively deleting all old content, likes, retweets, ect from. The second one is purely porn

Money isn’t a thing. I saw that Musk is at 700B now. He can spend a million dollars a DAY for nearly two thousand YEARS.

Side note: I installed rustfs yesterday, and it has an X link at the top of the admin page you can’t remove.
I’ve uninstalled it. That’s bullshit.

Was wondering what this is, but it doesnt even have a wikipedia page. Is it not open source / self hosted?
