social

Nearly every Elon tweet lately is an advertisement for decentralized social.

His takeover of X is the main reason I became a daily Farcaster user. There are likely millions of users there who want to leave for the same reason but don't know where to go.

Same here. I still use X because I have to but it’s textbook case of a social network becoming extractive of its users. It sucks.

Not only has it gone purely extractive (it would have done that anyway), but it has become a dangerous source of right wing disinformation. Elon Musk shares disinfo daily and has disabled Community Notes on his account so he can’t be fact-checked. He knows he’s lying to millions of followers, stoking their rage to get Trump re-elected. It’s a cesspit. If only Warpcast were friendlier to new users.
