That is just not true. I hate twitter but i still use it. I am autistic and follow very specific things on it and while i also use mastodon and bluesky, there is barely anyone that has the same current interests as i do.

I don't like it but i also don't completely want to alienate myself from people i enjoy talking to and seeing their stuff. I try to follow them all on mastodon and bluesky if they have an account there, but not everyone has that.

I have all ads blocked and purely use it for my hobbies. So suggesting that makes me a fascist is absolutely ridiculous. We are trying to move to another platform but its not as easy as you make it out to be.

Same as Lemmy. I love Lemmy. BUT there are things that just so not exist here yet that do exist on reddit. And i have no interest in making a community for it either as i don't want to moderate anything.

So because there aren't other options that are as good for your personal interests, you are OK with using a fascist supporting platform. But somehow you think it's unfair to say you are sort of OK with fascism, since you are using a clearly fascist supporting platform.

You know, that's called compromising your ideals for convenience. And if you are American you got what you deserve with Trump.
