Actually, they did. 90% of Twitter’s activity now is bots. The only people left are either artists who are completely delusional about their numbers (they have like 13k followers but barely get 200 likes), or mega nazis. Everyone else is no longer there and has moved to places like Bluesky or Mastodon. In fact, I myself never made it past 150 followers on my old twitter account and I had that one for 12 years. My current one has 82 followers and never climbed past that. Bluesky tho? I already have 170+ followers in less than two years of owning the account, and many other artists reached their Twitter follower count in a tiny fraction of the time.

People left MSN Messenger and Skype before, my dude. There’s just so much the average user can take.

Not only it’s unstable, but a friend of mine who dabbles with it also vouched for it being extremely unstable, and also it has a massive CSAM bot problem. A lot of IRC channels had to shut down their Matrix bridges cause they kept getting spammed with that shit. To that guy IRC is actually more user friendly.

Well, Stoat has the same features as Discord, including many premium ones for free, the ability to write HTML/CSS for your own server, with the only thing missing being video feed Otherwise, it functions the same while being much faster.

Matrix is actual dog shit in my experience (and in the experience of various IT guys I know).

Discord genuinely thinks they got the users by the balls… Thing is, people move platforms extremely easily. It happened to MSN Messenger, it happened to Skype, and it’ll happen to Discord too.
For those who are looking for something very similar, look at Stoat (formerly known as Revolt). Their URL is stoat.chat.

GIMP has always been kinda ass tbh. I used it back then to make gifs and that was the only thing in that program that wasn’t a pain to do.

…SSD and RAM prices are not gonna get better unless the AI bubble pops. I wouldn’t wait to get at least those two things.

The only reason I’m still in Windows is because I use Clip Studio Paint as my main art program (and while it is on Wine, the compatibility is extremely poor) and I also play certain FPS games with anti-cheat that’s incompatible with Linux. If those two problems are solved (which is one thing I’m banking Valve to do with SteamOS) then I’ll ditch Windows permanently. Until then, maybe the next time I install I’ll use Win11 LTSC which doesn’t come with any of Microsoft’s AI bullshit.
