X terms of service has right to take back username. X ported his followers over to new account at least, he said. Vaught is still using X, though he did set up account on Threads and Mastodon.
I’m tired of hearing about this company and its owner. Why is this news? Why is this shared? Can move on?
It gets worse on Fediverse as there are multiple threads to the same link on multiple instances. can’t get rid of reposts anymore
Most of them from the same 4 or 5 users.
Not even news, it happened a few days ago now
isn’t this supposed to be reddit? upvote the title of the article whenever it says something that aligns with your political identity
No
Dude is still simping for Musk. No sympathy.
I honestly don’t understand why anyone still has an account on that platform. Surely it’s obvious that the company is going down in flames and that Musk is going to outright steal users and handles from content creators. Inertia is not a good reason to fall victim to Sunk Cost Fallacy. It’s done. Leave.
Almost none of the people I follow on Twitter are on Mastodon and almost none of the people that follow me are there either. I’m not on Twitter because of the platform. I’m there because of the people on that platform. My strictly curated feed haven’t changed during the past few years no matter how hard people here are trying to convince me that Twitter has gone to shit. Maybe for you it has but I can’t relate. What ever Elon is doing happens in a corner of Twitter I’m not spending my time on.
It’s also the only platform where I’ve managed to grow any kind of following. It’s much nicer posting my content somewhere people actually see it unlike on places like Instagram which is just shouting into the void. The only change I’ve made is switch from the Flamingo app to browser because they killed 3rd party apps just like reddit.
Two things I‘m gonna fix for ya:
- All the people you know on twitter are also on mastodon. Double negatives are dumb.
- They came first for the communists… is your approach. Has been tried, don’t recommend.
Good luck
All the people you know on twitter are also on mastodon.
Yeah that’s simply just false
Almost none of the people I follow on Twitter aren’t on Mastodon and almost none of the people that follow me aren’t there either.
In that case it’s your own fault.
You mean „none of the people are on mastodon“ not „aren‘t“.
It’s what you wrote.
You want to know something that’s really amazing? This is 100% true, too. I’m not even kidding:
None of that matters.
Well I just don’t feel like you not liking twitter is a good enough reason for me to leave the platform.
That’s not what I’m saying. But ok.
That’s what the agument essentially boils down. I’m having a good time there but people still keep telling me I should leave. Personally I encounter significantly more toxic behaviour on Lemmy compared to Twitter. I’m still here too.
I’m just saying all the things you listed don’t matter in the long run. Unless you can specifically name the people you follow or follow you and all the other things you mentioned, its not important and can be easily replaced.
Yeah I’m sorry but that’s just not true. Mastodon has 7 million users and Twitter has 400 million. It took me a literal decade to build the following I now have on twitter. That’s not easy to replace and frankly I don’t even see why I should.
It honestly sounds like you’ve found a niche where Elon hasn’t looked yet. Congratulations.
If Twitter is a better platform for you, why bother with the fediverse?
I only post pictures on twitter. I don’t engage in conversations. Ever. That’s what reddit and now Lemmy is for.
Fair enough. But why not post your pictures here, too?
I could but it’s quite niche community I hang in which is not present here. I’m not active on twitter either but when I feel like posting something that’s where I go to
That’s cool. I hope it continues to work.
Old News news from last week.
Belongs in the enough musk spam community.Woah crazyyyy. Everyone should get off if Twitter.
