After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue.

I'm with you. I think there is some value in trying to reach the people on the data-harvesting platforms, but I would rather see that coupled with an incessant campaign to guide people into the Fediverse. At the end of every post, link to an article about how to do it. Do a monthly reminder about migrating and how & why the Fediverse is better.

I genuinely appreciate the work EFF does, but I think that this move is long overdue, and they could be doing more with their platform.
