Don't go to BlueSky !!! They're not better than X. They obey to the same leaders... MONEY, GREED, AND POWER. A few weeks ago they restricted 72 Turkish protesters the access to their BlueSky accounts on simple request of the Turkish Government. So, BlueSky cannot be trusted they will secure the accounts of their customers. If Trump would ask BlueSky to block all accounts of members who are against him, they'll do it right away.

I mean, Mastodon is German, so they're probably moving here. The federated fork of Dorsey's Twitter is second.
BlueSky is not federated. Also German users have outsized representation on Mastodon but most of the network is outside Germany.
"federated"
There is always that one comment saying "b-but its technically kinda federated". It doesnt fucking matter if its federated if 99.999% if all users are on one instance. The entire concept of a long lived, enshittification resistant fediverse relies entirely on being decentralized with a reasonably evenly distributed userbase. You fucking bet lemmy would already be completely worthless right now if people hadnt stopped lemmy.world from grabbing more communities and users.
Let me guess, they're moving to Bluesky?
I tried moving to Mastadon first a few years ago and it was a pretty shit experience, Bluesky however has stuck in my app rotation pretty well.
Or meta because its better? Like getting run over by a small car instead of a bus.
Ewww people actually use Threads? Last time I saw it, it was like LinkedIn 2.0 filled with sigma grindset "chase that bag" crap.
Threads sucks compared to bsky don't know what you're talking about there. Bluesky has way more features and posting quality.
Unironically yes sadly :(
That's were the marketing dollars are
Ayyy, gotta have that monaaaay!
The right-wing billionaire’s platform has recently lost about 10 percent of its European user base.
It's a good start but we gotta pump those numbers up.
The rest are bots and Russian troll farms.
Abandon anything this Nazi touches.
I forgot that people are still using Twitter. WTF!?
They are not - he X/cancelled it.:-P
What about his children that hate him but are still his children?
It's not just X; American social media has been gradually turning into such a shit show for the last 10 years: censorship, misinformation, consensus manufacture and creeping enshitification. I jumped ship to the fediverse and never looked back!
What's the quality like of the people who are still on Twitter in 2025? Does the fediverse want them? (These are real questions, I have no idea if there's still any decent people on Twitter.)
Every massive influx from Twitter has brought a deluge of people I want nothing to do with in any way shape or form, and a small sprinkling of cool ones. Fortunately like 4/5ths of the crappy ones leave again, but that other 1/5th is a big number when you're talking an influx of hundreds of thousands.
There likely are (I quit Twitter over a year ago), just because it does unique coverage on many topics.
It is humanities responsibility to make the rest of this man’s life miserable
Small chances for now, but let's keep growing small communities here. People need to get tired of Instagram and centralized algorithms to switch to fediverse
Might have to also let people know the Fediverse exists?
Those are rookie numbers, euros, get on that shit.
