    From MRO@VERT/BBSESINF to All on Mon Aug 11 22:16:33 2025
    So after all this time i'd have to say that the people who left twitter/x
    have caused a huge improvement.

    it's a much nicer place with less bots. i'm not a fan of the format but i check in every once in a while. each time it's a huge improvement.

    How many people do you think left Twitter/X? Why did they leave? I made an account 10 years back and checked it after reading your message here and I have 426 followers...why? It must be bots. I have a grand total of 5 posts in 10 years. I do not understand. Shaking my head.

    How are you tonight MRO?

    well twitter was a liberal echo chamber so when elon bought it he exposed their practices. the people that left and encouraged everyone else to leave didn't like elon.

    i find this strange because i think we can all agree that nobody likes zuckerberg and what he's done over the years. these same people use facebook with abandonment.

    the only difference is zuckerberg is an asshole who keeps a low profile.
    elon is an ahole who doesnt.

    They went to BlueSky where they can enjoy their own SafeSpace.
    The problem is social media is just as crazy as bbsing where people like to be litteral twits to each other.
