It's confusing when you call it X. X could mean pretty much anything. X marks the spot. Solve for x. Break up with your ex. Because X is one letter you cannot search for it. If you say Twitter it means only the social media website.
I just checked, it's true: https://www.helsinkitimes.fi/columns/columns/viewpoint/25490-dear-kamala-harris.html
That's a really good analysis! I totally see what you mean!
So basically you're saying nothing changes if they shut down.
We don't need everyone, just enough. Also there can be a time it happens.
I think they are giving it their all because they think it's their last chance. If we stay strong, united and focused we can defeat it.
Thank you for letting me know about that. I updated my comment.
You're right! That's why it's so urgent to take action against disinformation. I just left a comment with some ideas for what people can do to deal with the Twitter problem. As you just said millions are getting killed. What I suggest could just take a minute or two of your time and it will help slow down the spread of disinformation.
After seeing AOC's post I feel Twitter should be banned. Until that happens there are things we can do that are simple and effective:
For people who have a Twitter account:
- Switch to Bluesky and make a Tweet saying you are now on Bluesky and no longer post on Twitter. Note that per Furball's comment if you use the word Bluesky in your Tweet it will be hidden. Be sure to censor the word or use a screenshot.
- If you have no choice but to use Twitter install an adblocker such as uBlock Origin. Also review your privacy settings.
- Leave a 1 star review on the app store for the "X" (Twitter) app.
Things everyone can do even if you don't have a Twitter account:
- Help your friends who are still on Twitter migrate away.
- Urge companies, governments, organizations, celebrities and other large accounts to make a Bluesky account and phase out the use of Twitter. They can start by posting on both to make the migration easier.
- If you're writing an article or posting on Lemmy, Reddit or other websites prefer linking and screenshooting Twitter alternatives such as Bluesky, Mastodon and Threads instead of Twitter when possible. This is also good for your readers because Twitter makes it hard to read Tweets without logging in.
- Contact people in your government and urge Twitter be banned.
That would be amazing! Yes, that's better than what I was thinking.
