I still don't get why you would want to pay for xitter.

Even for free I'm unconvinced of the value of using it on purpose.

I only browse it for R18 stuff. Hopefully one day I will be able to get most of it from Mastodon uwu.

You are part of the problem.

I do the same. Mastodon, Bluesky are fucking ghost towns, and of those who opened accounts, few use them. Lots of artists didn't even do that (and have no alternative methods of sharing their content), so for lots it's 🐦 porn or no porn, and brother idgaf what y'all think, I'm enjoying my porn.

You do understand that are multiple free sites dedicated to just porn, right? Porn is the probably the dumbest reason to use Twitter.

You are part of the problem that everyone else hates.

My interests are quite... niche.

Also points at my pfp

hate me, you're still wrong <3

Each person that uses x is a piece of shit. I'm just saying it as it is. There are plenty of other options.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Facebook and Instagram by Zuckerberg? Tik Tok by the Chinese government? Reddit by Spez? Everything is a terrible option.

I don't use Twitter/x or anything but Lemmy, but the social media world is owned by terrible corporations and terrible people.

Mastodon is the federated alternative to twitter.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And, like Lemmy, lacks a large userbase comparable to that of Twitter or Facebook

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

Sites with small user bases will never grow as long as everyone is waiting for everyone else to migrate before doing so themselves.

I use adblock so I am doing this planet a service by adding load to their shitty serveris 👍

if only we could get them to use mastodon and not pay that "x" lover a 10

Deleting X is a violation of his first amendment rights and he’ll sue all of you!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

the first ever reverse class-action lawsuit

But as a liberal, I'm in favor of free speech. X is the only platform committed to that. Why would I cancel?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

X is the only platform committed to that.

As long as you're not too critical of Elon Musk.
