Great news — social media is falling apart::I don’t know where to post: there are too many social platforms, and the old giants are dying. The age of social media is splintering.

    I wished they mentioned Lemmy, but at least they are talking about Mastodon. I don’t understand why more media outlets aren’t switching away from Twitter, given how brazen Elon is with his enshittification.

    EDIT: Away from Twitter, not to Twitter.

        Use both Mastodon and Twitter, and then jump ship from Twitter once the time is right. Once Twitter is completely gated by a paywall, the whole thing will just collapse.

      Elon’s enshittification of Twitter would be a reason to switch away from, not to, Twitter.

      Part of the reason could be that when there was a large wave of people switching, including journalists on their own instance, that instance promptly got blocked by a large percentage of the fediverse based on some unclear moral grounds.
