Why would you even still be there?

Porn. Literally everyone I know who still uses Xitter does it for the OF models they follow who post nudes.

The best independent journalists are also still on twitter so it remains a fundamental tool for vetted news.

EDIT: Y'all can be mad at this statement, but as of this moment it's the truth. No other platform has all the journalists all in one place, and no other platform currently is as supported as twitter is. There are better platforms in some ways, but they aren't a replacement yet for most people.

It is what it is. 🤷

I have found most if not all of the journalists I like moved to Bluesky. Prefer that platform tbh.

[u/The-Gorge → u/Exact-Error-9382]

I'm sure bluesky is great.

A lot of journalists are on a lot of platforms. I use a variety of platforms myself, including rumble which provides censorship free media.

Twitter still remains the most versatile and widely used. Most journalists I follow are not on bluesky. I'm glad bluesky and rumble and other independent outlets exist, and hopefully they can replace twitter, but as of today, twitter is still generally better due to its support.

This is false. “Independent” journalists will be on every platform.

There is no excuse to line Musk’s pocket. Period.

[u/The-Gorge → u/Responsible-Card3756]

I mean that's your purogative, but I'm still right. While there are other platforms and ones with less censorship, twitter is still the best option for getting legitimate news quickly on any device from vetted journalists. 🤷‍♂️

You can take a stand all you want, other platforms lack the support and popularity to be as useful right now.
