I miss the old Twitter when I saw the stupid X animation.

~~Twitter~~ X is Elon Musk’s world. Pretty soon he’ll have so much control over his platform that he can practically cron kings and manipulate outcomes to fit his personal political agenda. And don’t even get me started on his whole stupid “X the everything app bullshit.

The only everything app that has succeeded so far is WeChat in China. But it’s apparently a surveillance app for the masses by the government. Seriously, why the hell would I want to link my social media account with my bank account and even my government ID? What’s the benefit in that?

I’d rather keep the digital me disconnected to the real me.

Nah, but it is decentralized, if you know what decentralized structure feels like, and from my user experience so far. And they are on dapp store, so I think they got reviewed. https://www.alchemy.com/dapps/wiremin

Does it even have a web version? It doesn't seem to be available for my Linux distro of choice, jumping through hoops to install some proprietary app would make it a massive fail.
