That’s exactly it. I saw a lot of people on Twitter today saying they’re only staying the fallout. It’s dumb, and yes, I’m part of the problem, though I’m staying only to update some connections on where I’m going.

I wonder how much x.com cost to purchase, or if it was just a domain twitter/Musk had lying around.

this is sooo complicated

It is, objectively, significantly more complicated, though.

Mastadon is where the smart people hang out... X is the fascist site and Facebook/Threads is the frivolous and stupid site.

are there any frontend webapps like wefwef/voyager?

I think this one is. elk.zone

Once the celebrities or official pages or figure people leave that site for its dismaying complications, that will be the doom of it as followers of those don't have other significant reasons to stay.
