    I think this every single time I see news about that website. Like what the fuck is possibly on there that justifies using that piece of shit platform? Insanity.

        Actually more relevant now, considering the ending

        “Go to the site where Nazi’s scream at you”. It’s talking about moving from facebook to twitter.

        Well the punchline to that sketch is “instead of FB, just do what I do: Go to the site where nazis scream at you!” just might be that twitter reference you said was missing.

      You can mimic the feel of Twitter by taking reddit threads and cutting them at the most popular reply (Reddit already does this), and then reversing the order. Now the “best” content is front and center and the conversation / context is in the background. Users don’t have to go through the tediousness of a discussion before experiencing the sheer joy of a witty response. The emotions come faster and more consistently.

      Unfortunately I think people don’t care how the sausage is made. It has porn and racist edgy memes so they’ll keep coming back.

        half of the users are probably porn OF accounts, i wonder if any of them actually divested from x. we know meta doesnt allow porn of any kind.

      There’s just a lot less activity on the alternatives. Especially if you’re trying to follow niche interests.

      Obviously, I left, but I get how barren it can feel when the latest post about a hobby of yours is 3 days old, instead of 3 minutes.

      Tech news. Fast tech news. It’s well centralized. Unfortunately nothing comes close (not reddit, nor HN, nor lemmy).

      People. Lots of people. Including Doctor Cory Doctorow and Molly White.
