Doing the right thing for the right reason is the definition of being a liberal.

That is literally not the definition of liberal though. Liberalism is a political ethos based on a number of tenets surrounding individual rights, private ownership of property and capital, governing consent via democracy, and an equal application of the law. There is plenty of room for those things to go very awry, and become what most would consider the wrong thing, for the wrong reason.

Each person that uses x is a piece of shit. I’m just saying it as it is. There are plenty of other options.

Facebook and Instagram by Zuckerberg? Tik Tok by the Chinese government? Reddit by Spez? Everything is a terrible option.

I don’t use Twitter/x or anything but Lemmy, but the social media world is owned by terrible corporations and terrible people.

Mastodon is the federated alternative to twitter.

And, like Lemmy, lacks a large userbase comparable to that of Twitter or Facebook

But, for several reasons is a much worse experience for people with a large number of followers, especially if they are from a marginalized group.

Everyone should get off X, but I find it hard to recommend any replacement. Threads and Bluesky have problems, but they might work better than Mastodon for some people or organizations.

I’m really sort of disappointed somebody hasn’t launched some transfer service for the entire platform.

There was almost one but then Xitter nuked their public API which makes it almost impossible, from memory. They knew this would happen, and they did everything they could to stop it.

What other site do we know of that made their API a pain to use killing the app that I used to tolerate that site that a good chunk of is migrated from?

How do I delete X? I’d love to, but I don’t think I have the access or permissions to delete an entire company.

I thought that sort of corporate warfare was more Saints Row and involved septic trucks.

It’s a matter of perspective. Delete it from your personal universe by uninstalling the app and blocking the website.
