MODERATORS
Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but the recent promotion of paid accounts has created a hostile environment and a wild spread of misinformation on just about any possible post. Staying on a broken platform and continuing to participate on it is extremely undesirable, especially when the owner is outright hostile to the idea that he's made the platform worse.
I suspect the many people fleeing from Reddit/Spez could commiserate over that notion.
I also disagree that the system Musk has created is "free speech", considering people who don't pay are drowned out by those who do.
