People keep saying 'but I've still got friends there' - then their contact details and/or advise them to leave. Maybe once you've gone they'll go to. I don't understand why people are happy funding that man, there are SO many alternatives to twitter.
This is why I deleted almost a year ago. Anyone still there is basically giving him money - no matter whether you're using the account. The biggest con is: 'I'm saving my handle so someone else doesn't use it'.
I'm guilty of that. But spend most of my time here now. So much less toxic
I still visit Twitter because there are still a few things to keep track of, but I spend far less time on it. Most of the people I used to follow there are now here (and not using Twitter at all).
I didn't wanna leave for the longest time and I'm still over there as most of my people are still over there. Trying to spend more time over here but it still feels so lonely right now lol
I'm perpetually perplexed that so many ppl are still there & active when there are decent alternatives, incl this.
"But so many of my friends are exclusive to X!"
I dunno what to tell you: maybe you need better friends.
I still post to Twitter, but it's a waste of time. I've got view counts in the teens (!) now for content I bother to put up there. While some of that is that many of the 2k+ people that follow me there are now gone, most I think is that the algorithms now don't show people who don't pay.
I haven’t deleted Twitter but I’ve locked and I don’t post at all
There are one or two people still there that I keep track of but for the most part my time is spent here
I’m over there less and less now that most of my favourite Twitter folk are here. But I’ve also met some new people here too so it’s a slightly different vibe.
I feel so much love for that you understand what I'm saying here. I've tried so hard to convey these feelings to my white friends but none of them seem to understand. Some of my favourite people just don't get it.
yeah same but people are so used to twitter and their following on there they don't want to leave. I'm out of people to invite too
Admittedly there are not that many Filipinos yet here, so I don't spend my time as much here :)) But I do lurk every now and then. 🫣
Happy New Year, Marney.
There are many friends here. But I still spend most of my time on the other app.
I've given up on twitter altogether, most people I talk to are still there. but I move on and if I have to leave others behind then so be it. I'm happier here
Turns out that most of the screenwriting folks I followed on Twitter are still there. I’ve blocked enough other folks so that I’m not seeing much crazy or offensive stuff. So less active here than expected but still happy to have an alternative.
A lot of people have, but I’m not going to leave. I’ve been there too long, I ignore musky and there are still many man people there to whom I want to stay connected.
I don't use X(Twitter) much these days, but I just can't bring myself to delete my acc. Because many wonderful people who I've grown to love are a part of my Twitter friends and there are memories with them there.
I've been here like 11 months and quite a few of the people on my skyline have been there most of the time but so many people i used to talk to every day are just gone
I still go there but don't post much, but so many ppl are still sticking to that place 🥺
Very good people. I'm happy that Jo is here. At least I have their phone numbers too. There are a lot of people that I only know via twitter - so those friends are lost to me now.
I honestly keep forgetting to pop over. The majority are still on Twitter so I still spend most of my time there. In spite of everything that entails.
I've been surprised when I go back there at
1) How well my setup has worked to keep out Elon's friends
and
2) How many people I like to hear from are still there. I know that many of them have accounts here.
A lot of people are saying this but pretty much my entire Twitter network is here. But obviously there are less random people. I also have Swedish interactions now which is kind of new and exciting. I will get to go to a bluepup.
i think the death of twitter is really depressing. i understand people's desire to find another place that will be like twitter but i don't think there ever will be on that scale, in terms of organizing and community building. i think that's sad.
it also sucks for freelancers and content creators.
I *really* like it. I don't follow a lot of people (I just can't), but still I spend a lot of time there - there are SO MANY AMAZING RABBIT HOLES to go down!! 🥰
sigh I wish I can quit that site but there are still so many people there I want to keep following
I don't read a ton of depositions, but this is probably the most unhinged example of the genre I have ever encountered. Absolute scenes.
Musk is being sued for falsely suggesting a 22-year-old Jewish man was part of a neo-Nazi brawl.
www.huffpost.comThe people that I put on my friends list are the people that I actually like to spend time with. Basically I like to hang out with them. But I have an issue with people who just leave me there on their friends list and never give me that chance to hang out with them or talk to them. Why?
A lot of people have, but I’m not going to leave. I’ve been there too long, I ignore musky and there are still many people there to whom I want to stay connected.
