Yet you continue to use it…

This is what I don't get, people not migrating from a shit platform. Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, etc.

They all just reach this critical mass where people decide the benefit of everyone else using it outweighs all the negatives of the platform being abusive to its own users

FOMO is incredibly powerful unfortunately.

The important stuff will be reposted on another platform. It's the whole point of !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works

The important stuff to you might not be the important stuff to someone else. And not everything gets reposted.

I'm not saying that's a good reason to stay on Twitter, but I am saying it's a big reason people stay.
