Knowing what you know about Elon Musk, why are you still on X? (lemm.ee)

Because I like the way Molly feels.

I left Twitter exactly 24 days before it was rebranded to X. Let's just say I'm glad I made that move.

UFOX and UFOTwitter hashtags. All other major social media are censoring the topic (including Reddit, which once was supposed to be open). Lately, Twitter started doing so too (it barely suggests ufo topics for me in the last month, even if that's the only reason I'm there), but the hashtags still work as expected. Unfortunately, on all the fediverse media, the topic is still laughed at (despite the various government admissions in the past year), and so there isn't any discussion about it. Twitter is where it's at, for that topic.

Edit: Proving my point, providing a truthful answer to the topic's question, and still been downvoted by the fediverse en mass.

Deleting my account now means Musk wins.

I’m there to autoblock all of Elon’s advertising.

I’m there specifically to annoy you.

Also there are people using their real names sharing their real lives for me to give a shit about. The Maui community is strong there. People disappear from Twitter and I wonder what happened. If people disappear from here I wouldn’t notice.

This might be the wrong crowd to ask as I suspect Fediverse users would favor Mastodon over X.

I don't understand, why should I care about what interchangeable capitalist owns the social media I use?
