Oh, there's no replacement for Twitter and it provides tons of utility. But a significant fuckton of the value add accounts on the platform are still going to leave.
 
The problem is that none of the alternatives seem set up to handle it all, and that's fracturing people unsure where to go for their feeds. Like I don't trust that Mastodon won't just crash and be down for 24 hours.

The biggest benefit of Twitter has always been that basically everyone is there. It's the social media equivalent of everyone chatting in the town square. But with that burning to the ground, all these other places are like their own pubs. They're going to become their own echo chambers as people self-select which one to focus on.
yup, that's why I was hoping musk would learn from his mistakes and stop trying to destroy twitter. There isn't another comparable option. Post is interesting but nowhere close.

Unfortunately Musk keeps doubling and tripling down on his most idiotic ideas, like just 1 or 2 days ago he was mocking people who had blue check marks before his arrival and how they will eventually be removed. ie. he STILL HAS NOT FUCKING LEARNED why Twitter created them in the first place. It's stunning.
 
since he makes radical changes pretty much every day, you'd think just by the law of averages he would occasionally implement a good one
