X Likely to Lose More Users in 2025: Post-Election Exodus Projected to Have Continuous Ripple Effect
i don't think he cares; he already spent $44b to buy an election
What do they need twitter for now? They have the NSA.
"continuous ripple effect"
Soooo.... a wave?
The death spiral of a social platform:
Some percentage of people want to leave, find alternatives and leave.
Some percentage of people follow them out the door, because staying in touch with those people is more important than any perceived "loyalty" to $socialplatform.
Repeat the last step until all users have left.

As your doctor, I prescribe 10mg of touch grass
Might not be enough, but I trust your dosage recommendation.
Bad troll is bad
I'm happy to use something besides X, but when all I see on Bluesky is a circle jerk of people that love Biden & saying that Kamala ran a flawless campaign, then I start to hate it.
Just stay on X, looks like you're the target audience.
I see the same thing. And as your down-votes suggest, Lemmy isn't much better. People seem to miss out on the fact that, just because one side is very wrong, that doesn't mean the other is entirely flawless. The left is now blowing sunshine up their own posteriors, and demanding others do the same. They become what they despise.
They lost to Trump again and appear to have learned nothing. Same ole blame everyone but ourselves.
If you follow groups that are about other stuff, you will find them. There are plenty of starter packs, even for conservative stuff.
good job, humanity. all it took for you to finally leave twitter was literal fascism
But.. my follower count! /s
But my network effects /s
...and they're still too weak willed to do anything other than jump ship to another corporate shithole that's sure to enshittify (Bluesky literally owes millions to Blockchain Capital). Then they yell "I'll just move to the next big thing when that's over!" (Nevermind that you've created another billionaire who will use their money to influence politics in the process) Man, these people really love the capital class just exploiting the living shit out of their lives every step of the way, don't they? Because learning a different system that doesn't have corporate polish is too hard. Better to just get all your data sucked up and exploited time and time again rather than choosing a non-corporate option that doesn't involve making a small number of people obscenely rich just because you used their social media.
Humans are fucking trash.
Bluesky already started to give special treatment to some far-right agitators (Jesse Singal), so the enshittification might begin even before the monetization.
Also someone have yet to write anything with ATProto to give Bluesky some reality check.
bit of a sanctimonious comment, fascism feels like a perfectly fair line for the early and late majorities to draw. it takes a lot of energy to move half a billion people—that doesn’t make the early exiters morally better, just better positioned and informed.
LOL are you serious? "innovation adoption" wtf
it's not "innovation" and it's not "adoption"
it's legit nazi propaganda, and it's abandonment. i sincerely hope you're just making a half ass attempt at trolling
Not literal
Experts agree that trump isn't a fascist (although they also agree that that doesn't make it any better)
Huh?
