    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 try to effect the conversation,

        And these people are insane. Elon has total control over the narrative, and the people that believe they can “throw sand in the gears” with some quippy xeets are delusional.

        At least they’re moving, but fucking Christ; far too many people have main character syndrome.

          Eh idk, Elon boosting right-wing content doesn’t mean that nobody was seeing people’s anti-Trump posts on there, much less that they did any harm.

        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.
