The fact that they waited this long doesn't say much about them

So we are finally going over to bluesky?

i would, but no one is over there. Everyone still uses twitter, so it's where i stay.
Until gay twitter and black twitter move over there in droves, it's boring.

Huh not sure if it’s a good idea but if other publications do the same then there might be some big change and damage to Elon.

Celebs deleting their twitter is not a big win since a lot of them migrated to IG long before Elon took over. Plus IG gives more of a fourth wall ironically compared to twitter.

What would hurt him the most is regular people leaving. In mass.

I only use it when ONTD links an article through their and I wanna read the source material…sucks the only third party ONTD can link is Twitter.
