So since Deviantart, Imgur, and Tumblr died by banning porn, he's hoping X will come back to life!?!?
No thanks, the fediverse is better at it, with way less nazis and tankies, those that are here are in their own containment zones.
Twitter is way better for certain topics. I haven't been able to find the quantity or quality of OSINT stuff almost anywhere else at the level that Twitter has it.
If you want to know what's happening on the ground day to day in Ukraine or Middle East, there's no better place (edit: I lied. Telegram is pretty good, I forgot when I was writing this)
Like there are people who geolocate pictures to determine GPS coordinates and then get satellite scans to determine the effects of missile strikes or what have you
Foe example remember the Iran missile/drone salvo? There was an Israeli response to it? Claimed they blew up some Iranian radar for an air defense system with a missile?
Satellite images showed that was a lie. The damage on the ground implied only a small explosion that looks like other drone explosions. I only knew about it because I was on Twitter following specific people.
There's a lot of shit you have to tread through, lots of bots and spam and crazies and propaganda accounts and what have you
But if you look around there's a lot of gems
None of them are dead.
