I feel like my comment is the only one that even attempts to answer the question.
Pretty predictable though. Lemmy is even less mainstream than Mastodon so I would expect most people here to be way outside mainstream social media’s target audience.
This… Also, what a loaded and opinionated question. It implies that you shouldn’t be on X because of Elon Musk, if OP was genuinely curious about why someone uses X, they could have asked a neutral question: “Are you using X? Why or why not?” or “If you are using X, why and how?”. This currently just reflects the OP’s opinion for validation I guess?
Your advice isn’t directed at me, because I’m on Twitter. Look, I agree with you that those comments are shitty, but OP should know that if you ask shitty questions, you’ll get shitty answers.
Similarly to Snot Flickerman, I also believe that this thread will be filled with comments about not being on twitter, as that seems to be a common demographic of lemmy.
And also similarly to Snot Flickerman, I’ll make use of this opportunity to become the very thing I resent in this thread by mentioning that I’m also not on twitter.
Inb4 fifty comments all saying “I’m not on twitter/x.”
Hey, I’m not either, but we aren’t who this thread is for, please and thank you
Please upvote this so people see it and think before making a shitty throwaway comment that adds absolutely zero to discussion.
Edit: fucking called it
I like how those people didn’t appreciate you taking away their circlejerk opportunity, so just downvoted you instead 😂
I swear half of Lemmy is just people talking about how they don’t use Twitter or Reddit.

Its 2024 and this isn’t an unpopular opinion that OP holds
Its AskLemmy, not a fucking serious news organization or something. Who cares if its loaded and opinionated? Validate OP’s opinion away!
Then why didn’t OP say “For those of you still on X/Twitter, “?
because it’s clearly implied by the title and they said as much elsewhere in the comments
but don’t let that get in the way of you being a pedantic ass
The way I read it was “of course you use Twitter, everyone does” as is the general assumption.
I mean, you’re the one who actually commented saying you’re not on it. Admittedly, you did say that it was a shitty comment right after making it.
Good job on taking my advice and keep staying pedantic!

Lmao you don’t know what pedantic means, do you? woooooosh

Ah I see the pedantic asses are out in force today!
Much like the “I’m not on twitter” folks, you’re not nearly as clever or original as you think you are! Ta-ta!
