Leave Xitter, but keep facebook, insta, tiktok, youtube etc. Also us keeping using them is not an endorsement.

And this is not hypocritical, why?

You gotta reach people where they are. Twitter doesn't have as many eyeballs as the others.

And what is the actual work requirement to copy-paste you post to your twitter? Assuming that they didn't spend their social-media person didn't spend time arguing with people on X.

Zero, there's plenty of software out that there allows you to write once and post everywhere. This isn't about declining engagement either since they are still reaching literally MILLIONS of people every year.

This decision was reached because of Xitters owner, no other reason makes sense.
