It's where people are. It's the whole fucking point of social networks! If the user base drops to a point where people are no longer there, I'll go to the next network.
If I were to boycott everything owned by a cunt, I'd probably live in a mud hut, naked in a park somewhere.
The self-gratification on here doesn't make me want to use Twitter any less.
For all it's faults, there isn't a legitimate competitor. Mastodon has no users and has a less intuitive interface than Twitter. BlueSky is...I couldn't even tell you what the fuck it is. Threads is basically a meme project by Zuck (another billionaire cunt) to toy with Musk, and it'll be dead within a year.
FWIW, I fucking hate Musk. I'm a software engineer, and one of the few big tech companies I wanted to work for was Twitter. Their branding was cool, they worked on cool tech problems, and I heard great things about their workplace culture back in around 2010-2012. Musk fucked up a company I liked.
I've long considered Musk to be a fraud, and to be honest Twitter is the least of his problems. He's clearly a very sick man that probably needs professional help above everything else.
If he were a normal person, someone would've cornered him and coerced him into medical detainment. If people thought I had a coke problem that affected my ability to conduct meetings and think clearly, I'd be out on my ass. Musk can get away with it because he owns his companies, and no one cares enough about him to help him. He's a dancing monkey that doesn't realise that people are laughing at him, not with him...
