I take pride in never having been there in the first place. Hell I've even avoided any links that would take me there.
I had a job that made me sign up like 15 years ago. Never figured out what it was good for.
Someone impersonated me on twitter and sent people Temu ads one time. I don't have a twitter.
I followed.some twitter accounts that posted funny star Trek memes
Never had any other reason to go there
do i get a medal for never having been there in the first place?
I gotchu bud 🥉
thanks!! 🫶😇
Is there a club? Can I join?
I saw the original 140 character limit and thought: "I need to be able to write things that amuse, explain, or matter. That's nowhere near enough." Sure, "brevity is the essence of wit" but that's too brief and I'm not that witty.
"I need five whole paragraphs to tell a joke."
-You
It looks like they managed it in only one paragraph.
I can't believe how many people are still using it and consider the "main place".
Because, like it or not, it is the main place. Government entities from all over the world sit there, not on Mastodon.
Also, I'm not entirely certain that abandoning the clueless "average users" to the full extent of far-right propaganda without even a chance for corrections is the best approach, not when Twitter is still one of, if not the, most popular social network.
Honestly, anyone who still uses Twitter after the recent news has demonstrated that they are OK with CSAM, and should be treated as such.
If my like to dislike ratio is any indicate, about 12.5% of Lemmy users need to be on a list.
“Anyone I disagree with belongs on a list.” — literally this guy
I left and deleted my account the day Elon bought it.
Me too
Making CSAM with Grok?
To leave the nazi bar, one needs only to walk out the door. There are other non-Nazi bars right nearby.
And remember if there's a bar full of 19 Nazis plus you... it's a bar full of 20 Nazis.
And an apple a day keeps the Nazi away!
Better yet, go out with glory. Get yourself banned for speaking up against Nazis, and ICE, and pedos.
I have no idea why the fuck people are addicted to that garbage site but I still see people sending me links to it.
It still seems like a lot of bands, brands, sports clubs, even governments haven't left, so people who want to see info from them still stick around. It's pretty ridiculous when your official fire department social media account is on the same site producing deepfakes of nude or nearly nude kids.
That, and people believe FUD, which is usually in the form of overreporting on toxic callouts - yes, I had to block some anti-AI people and their blocklists, but Twitter is still way worse.
Other is that people believe too much in the power of "market demand magic". Remember all those elitist gamers who only want games to be made to the most hardcore ones, who in turn harass women and minorities? It's not just them who are like that. Even progressive Harry Potter fans are still deluding themselves that if they stop funding Johanne Karen Rowling's TERF war chest, she will suddenly become way worse.
Yet others complain that Bluesky and Mastodon are not as addictive as Xitter. It's like claiming salad is bad for you, because it doesn't provide cocaine-like addiction.
That and instant gratification. Heaven forbid you see news 24-48 hours later about some inconsequential topic. Just imagine..
I know a Twitter user. He stays there for the genAI news and discussions. He tried using BlueSky, but all the AI bros got bullied off it
Pretty much everyone still on twitter is a pedo who sees the CP as a perk.
I deleted mines yesterday. I was on there for wrestling twitter. I can't stay on there anymore with people trying to debate the concept of consent and the AI chatbot stuff.
At this point is fair to assume Twitter users are either Nazis, pedophiles or both.
Since it's clear shame isn't working I'll happily congratulate anywho leaves Twitter in 2026. Late to the party is better than never.
I'd recommend leaving Twitter without actually leaving. As in: clear out your entire profile of data, change your pfp icon/banner accordingly, and change your bio to something supporting the call to leave.
Social media sites do well because, when people leave, the feed fills in around them and mutuals no longer know they're gone. For added impact, set up an automated message saying why you've left and where to found you, or something else to that extent.
I also think twitter is now doing the facebook thing and replacing lost users with AI bots to maintain stats. Hollowing out the account and replacing posts with nonsense is probably a way better idea than deleting the account since it will poison the AI.
