      It’s basically a chicken and egg problem. We don’t leave because they are there, and they don’t leave because we are there. I would, and have already, happily go to alternate platforms. The main problem now is that nobody seems to agree on what the better platform would be.

        I’m old enough to use whatever platforms I want. I don’t think jackasses are going to change that. I may get tired of them, though

        Usually I’m more polite but when someone posts an article like this while following it up with an X link, all subtlety goes out the window.

        The irony is palpable.

        Also mastodon in the X replacement, lots of really nice people there. This is Lemmy and full of shit posting.

        If I had to choose between a platform for racists/fascists and a platform for just a bunch of Internet assholes, it’s gonna be assholes every time. I can live with those.
