X is worse than truth social.
If you're still on it, I judge you for that. No matter your reason.
Eh, I'll continue enjoying my yiff there. Once most of the artists & content creators I follow move to Bluesky I probably won't have any reason to stick to Twitter though.
Most of the furry artists are moving to Bluesky anyways, so it'll be worth your fapping time to start checking there as well.
But for the artists that haven't moved? Yeah, go ahead. As long as you also archive it locally to cut down on revisits.
I'm there for the porn. That's the only thing I've ever used it for.
I don't know what Musk thinks of porn but I do know that one part of project 2025 is a ban on porn. Maybe Musk will get on that. I'd recommend trying to contact your favorite content creators and friends on Twitter and ask them to move to Bluesky.
You can play an active role in helping your favorite creators move to Bluesky. Leave a comment on their posts and send DMs urging them to stop using Twitter. Urge other people to do likewise.
