I already avoid Twitter, why would I join a Twitter clone?

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Not a chance.
nope lol. last thing this world needs is "twitter... AGAIN!" (and that's coming from someone who actually uses bluesky). best thing i can hope for is that it won't be an embrace, extend, extinguish scheme for activitypub.
I'm banned from Facebook so... probably not
I do wonder how this will shake out. While I personally won’t be participating, lots of my friends (older gen z) deleted/abandoned their twitters but kept instagram. Some of them even use that little “status” thing that can show up on the top of your messages.
No because it's Meta and they're undoubtedly going to ruin yet another platform. Their strategy of buying out all their competition has stopped working and we need to let them slide into irrelevance like all social media platforms do.
No. I don't want to go anywhere near that company.
I can only handle so many social sites at once. So no, I will not.
I haven't used a Meta product (or twitter) in years. I have no plans on going back. Neither of these businesses inspire confidence.
Roflmao!
no
No, thank you!
No.
I currently only use Meta products for marketing and because other people I know use it most.
Two words
Twitter porn
Uh, no.
Fuck no!
And give more power to Facebook? No. Sorry, I still call meta "Facebook." I kind of an old head despite being young.
Nope. Meta is a blight on the world. Musk, Huffman should buy Meta and start a competition on who can make it circle the drain faster.
Not very interested, except if everyone I follow on twitter moves there (which I doubt would happen, as most are rather trying to move to mastodon). But it would sure be nice to have a twitter that's not run by fucking elon musk. Meta aren't saints and facebook has been trash for many years, but they've never implemented absolutely dumb decisions as far as I know or made fools of themselves really. Nor does Meta's CEO keep spouting reactionary nonsense and trying to be the center of attention at all times. I won't ever install a Meta app on my phone, but I still think I actually prefer Zuckerberg over absolute clowns like Musk or Spez.
I'm sticking with facebook because there's no limitation in the type of content I can share
Fuck no. I'm not touching anything Facebook ever again.
I might have a lurker account. Honestly, in the short time i've been on the fediverse it would have to be very compeling to do so. It's much better here.
nope, I never joined or went on Twitter
No.
Ignoring my general problems with Meta, I find Instagram very clunky in general. Pass.
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say we've had enough of Twitter clones it's about time to start making some more fucking Reddit clones. Not everybody likes fucking Twitter Jesus Christ
