I still use it. For that which I engage, or who I engage with, it hasn’t changed for me. Almost 100% for metal bands. Tours, album releases. We have a pretty cool metal community going. People I’ve been speaking with for many years now.
Leaving a platform you don’t like, or the reasons you don’t like it, isn’t “common sense”.
Never underestimate the network effect and how reluctant people are to move to another social network. The masses just follow the crowd, so every big account moving out from there helps take more users away.
It’s a shame I haven’t seen more YouTubers leaving X, they all seem to use it to talk about whatever they do. Not that I watch a lot of YouTube these days but my family does, younger ones especially watch those minecraft SMP types. Its arguably the most toxic social media but “everyone’s on there”.
I keep making the incorrect assumption that everyone has already left X. Just seems common sense we’ve hit all hands abandon ship

I liked this article about the whole ordeal so I’ll share it here: Why You’ll Leave X as well as instagram and all other private platforms
Nicely concise description of bubble-dwelling.
There are lots of brands and people still on X and try to justify it with hand waving.
