"I can't leave Twitter -- all my followers are there."
"I can't leave Twitter -- all the people I follow are there."
It feels like the obvious first step is for the people with many followers to start posting all their content on multiple sites, so that the second point no longer applies.
The trickiest part is the lack of a fully agreed upon alternative. Do you go to Mastodon, instagram, threads, etc? While some folks might have an alternative that they view as a no brainer, it's pretty clear that there isn't overwhelming consensus. Mastodon seems perhaps the most popular as a direct Twitter alternative, but it regularly faces complaints about usability and discoverability. If people post to both Twitter and some random alternative, if that alternative varies wildly, followers will stay on Twitter cause it's where all their favourites are.
yes but on lemmy it’s generally quarantined to subs specifically about the migration

Are you saying Elaine instead of Elon on purpose?
It's known as sunk cost and I understand it, I've been a victim of it myself.
For anyone (such as myself) whose use-case for Twitter is just for following specific people, if those influencers aren't using Threads or Mastodon then there isn't a competitor who can replace that service. I only use Twitter for a few select people and that's it. I'm on Mastodon just posting into the void which is fun but doesn't replace Twitter for me (yet)
