Part 5 is where I don't see this actually going.

Look at twitter. Now look at mastodon. Tell me which one is more shitty. Now tell me which one has something like 85% of the market, and which one most people haven't heard of.

Just because something it better, doesn't mean people use it. You can fit all of Lemmy in the world in one of the larger NBA size arenas. You can't even fit twitters total user base into some smaller CITIES.

Twitter will be dead within 1-2 years, Elon will make sure of that

He's now suing advertisers to force them to pay him money because he told them (literal quote) to go fuck them selves after they didn't wanted to have their ads shown next to neo Nazis, and well, they all left. Good luck with that, forcing advertisers to come back, lol.

Twitter is barely having any income and the interest in the loans to buy twitter alone cost a billion per year.

Twitter (and I fucking refuse to call it x) will be gone soon
