The Debian Publicity Team will no longer post on X/Twitter. We took this decision since we feel X doesn't reflect Debian shared values as stated in our social contract, code of conduct and diversity statement. X evolved into a place where people we care about don't feel safe. You are very much invited to follow us on https://bits.debian.org , on https://micronews.debian.org/ , or any media as listed on https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Publicity/otherSN

Anyone who abandons NaziTwitter after today is officially slower to change than Debian.

Debian user here, happy to be running such a low-maintenance OS. Thanks for making me laugh out loud.

This got an audible chuckle out of me.

Every time they post on Mastodon they should make a post on Twitter that says they posted there until they get banned.

Please use this easy flow chart if you want to know if you should use X in any way or form:

Are you a Nazi? -> YES -> Use X -> NO -> Do not use X

Flowchart? All I see is “NO - Do not use X”

I wonder if it would be more effective to drive traffic away from xitter by instead posting partial text, followed by a segment that says "continued on [insert other social media post] here".

Nah, that's still engagement. Ignore it, and let it rot away

That'd be like expecting Lemmy users to actually click the link and not just comment.
