Inb4 fifty comments all saying "I'm not on twitter/x."
Hey, I'm not either, but we aren't who this thread is for, please and thank you
Please upvote this so people see it and think before making a shitty throwaway comment that adds absolutely zero to discussion.
Edit: fucking called it
Jokes on you, I'm not in this thread
I like how those people didn’t appreciate you taking away their circlejerk opportunity, so just downvoted you instead 😂
I swear half of Lemmy is just people talking about how they don’t use Twitter or Reddit.
I feel like my comment is the only one that even attempts to answer the question.
Pretty predictable though. Lemmy is even less mainstream than Mastodon so I would expect most people here to be way outside mainstream social media's target audience.
Nothing but upvotes on kbin
Well, la dee da.
I'm blue la buh dee la dee dah
Hey! Those aren't the only social media platforms I don't use =P
Similarly to Snot Flickerman, I also believe that this thread will be filled with comments about not being on twitter, as that seems to be a common demographic of lemmy.
And also similarly to Snot Flickerman, I'll make use of this opportunity to become the very thing I resent in this thread by mentioning that I'm also not on twitter.
Ah I see the pedantic asses are out in force today!
Much like the "I'm not on twitter" folks, you're not nearly as clever or original as you think you are! Ta-ta!
Then why didn’t OP say “For those of you still on X/Twitter, “?
because it's clearly implied by the title and they said as much elsewhere in the comments
but don't let that get in the way of you being a pedantic ass
The way I read it was "of course you use Twitter, everyone does" as is the general assumption.
I mean, you’re the one who actually commented saying you’re not on it. Admittedly, you did say that it was a shitty comment right after making it.
Good job on taking my advice and keep staying pedantic!
Your advice isn’t directed at me, because I’m on Twitter. Look, I agree with you that those comments are shitty, but OP should know that if you ask shitty questions, you’ll get shitty answers.
Lmao you don't know what pedantic means, do you? woooooosh
