    Curious if anyone here is still finding a need for X network in their day to day lives?

    I was never big on Twitter so had no trouble leaving when Elon bought.

      I never got onto twitter in the first place. I got a bit concerned when governments and NGOs started using it as the default shopfront from which they interacted with the public.

      I mainly use Mastodon now but sadly, my country’s public institutions (such as meteorology and seismology) have no presence in the fediverse. There’s also a particular fandom I follow that mainly interacts om Twitter.

      Same. There’s no shortage of places on the internet where you can display your ignorance or stupidity, and most of them have more functionality than twitter.

      Need? No

      I do still have an old version of the app installed that I occasionally get interesting notifications from though
