I wish these media people would stop whining and make a damn replacement.

Jeff Beezy can do it in a week :beli:

Until then, use Twitter with AdBlock

Mastodon is damn near unusable. I wish someone would make a good Twitter clone. It will happen eventually.

mastodon needs to be forked, the developer is against posts going viral or supporting full-text search. doesn't allow quoting of users posts by design because they claim it's a anti-harassment deterrent. it has the potential to be a great place to disseminate information but by design they handicap it. the project has to be forked for decentralized microblogging to truly thrive.

I tried to tell an idiot that is now blocked by me in this thread that no suitable Twitter alternative exist currently and that's why I haven't left. He acted like I was making it up.

There is no other social media platform that comes near enough to Twitter and no other media has the ability to spread messages so fast. The UK & many other Western governments are not prepared for a post Twitter world. I think contingency plans will now speed up. China is happy

theres a lot of people offering misinformed opinions in this thread instead of asking questions. I don't know of a single site that does or has what twitter offers and i've been looking for years.
