Better late than never. But I'm pretty tired of all these people posting about how they're leaving X now.
Thanks for supporting him and all the lies and insane demagogy up until the election. If you didn't have an account on Truth Social, why did you still have one on X after he revealed himself so long ago?
I think a lot of people were sticking around to follow election news and try to effect the conversation, and are bailing now that it's over in hopes of building up bluesky by the next one.
And then wait for the next right-wing psychopath to buy up that one? You can't jump off Twitter to another privately held platform and not expect the same to happen there sooner or later.
They think that the problem is Musk, because he's the proximate cause. You can't expect people who are uneducated about this stuff to make a systemic analysis, research decentralized alternatives, and then decide to go to Mastodon or whatever.
If they were that educated on the issue, they would've left X a long time ago.
