Followers and online friends are very important to some people, but at what point do remaining Twitter users give up?
I understand there are some pathetic individuals who agree with Musk. I’m not talking about them. I mean the ones who should know better, but haven’t left yet.
What does it take for people to realize “I’m helping an utterly wretched man keep his business alive?” Don’t they realize they’re burning their all-important reputations by staying? Is it worth it to them? Why?
I wish people (especially just regular ol’ people, not big names) realized that if they started using Mastodon or BlueSky their engagement would go up tremendously. I’ve had full blown huge threads with all sorts of people on both platforms, even when I had literally just made my account.
On Twitter you’re lucky to even get a like on a post unless it’s some hot take on a political topic.
