The right-wing extremism and misinformation if you were actually wondering

Right, but I don’t see how simply being on the platform makes one part of the problem.

Uh, woah there. Why the extremeist view? I’m on there pretty actively for industry chatter. What’s the problem I’m a part of?

Yeah some niche communities that have nothing to do with extremists or politics at all are only on Twitter/X unfortunately. For example, I am into domain name investing and all my domainer friends gather on X to discuss our latest acquisitions and sales. I’ve tried to get people to move to Mastodon, but it’s difficult.

Yeah same in defi software engineering. All of crypto is on Twitter and calls it “ct” aka “crypto twitter”.

FYI, I’m referring to engineering, not shitcoin scam crap.

If I don’t keep up with stuff there, there’s no other places to follow the buzz.
