Please consider setting up an account on Mastodon and slowly move over as it takes time to build your network just like it did when you first joined Twitter. Get off Twitter.

As much as I hate twitter and musk like you, mastdon can not be used for news but solely a social network app, which I'm not intrested in any. Tried it for a while and mostly it's cat pics.

That is why I suggest just opening account and cross post so that over time the network can grow. The more who do this the more relevant the content will be on Mastodon. That, or we call all be held as hostages on X and survive to Elon’s desires.

I know you don't mean him, but that would be funny as shit to see him link a mastodon account, and see what the reaction of the community is to him.

Elon did profess the virtues of decentralized currencies, but that was all just a pump and dump in the end. He could care less about decentralization as he is all about centralization clearly.
