Mods, please let me know if this is not allowed. I’ll remove it.

With what’s happening at Twitter and the mess that’s going on right now, I feel that we need to migrate all the users over to the fediverse. I still don’t understand why anyone would still be using Twitter today but we need to get them out as soon as possible and stop supporting Elon. I think what he’s doing is ridiculous and it’s just a matter of time before he runs Twitter into the ground.

Lots of content I want to see is on Twitter and the alternatives those content creators use are like Instagram or even worse. If I have to choose between Twitter and Instagram, then Twitter is the obvious choice, still.

Every once in a while I check who is now on Mastodon, and I am always happy when I see a few more users I like. But then I look and many people rather look for Project 92 or Bluesky from Jack instead of just joining Mastodon.

Is there a reason why this is the case? Could it be because it’s a publicity thing where it’s created by tech billionaires that’s why they prefer them over anyone else?

I think people just have more trust in platforms made by public figures, as dumb as that sounds.
