I deleted my account as soon as the takeover got official. Fuck Elon. People still staying on Twitter are delusional.

I know, there are some artists who depend on their following on Twitter for exposure. But I think they can band together and pick a Mastodon instance to migrate to and direct their followers. That would be better than having your account suspended without reason or get doxxed because you submitted your government ID to Twitter and they got hacked.
