  • X, the former Twitter, has experienced a worldwide outage as of 12PM on Monday CAT.
  • This is likely the first major outage of the company since Musk took ownership in 2022.
  • The outage seems to have only lasted for about half an hour.

Who the fuck is still on that nazi shithole

Even the porn creators and erotic artists have left.

When you've lost the porn it's game over man.

The Tumblr Effect

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Since you seem to know what platform have they moved to generally?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

Most of them have gone to BlueSky. A few are on Mastodon but rarely as their primary (sadly). A lot of artists have gone to places like FurAffinity, Pixiv, and to a lesser extent DeviantArt.

Unfortunately a lot of them have just resorted to being on Patreon, which is unfortunate.

Asking for a friend...

Nazis, I imagine.

Remember kids, only nazis support nazis.

I was just talking to a friend who's very anti-nazi (at least, that's what he says), told him that by staying there, he's feeding the nazis. He says that he's the resistance working from within lol. People would tell themselves all kinds of stories for convenience.

Ask him if he'd go to a nazi bar, and start a fist fight.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 hours ago

I mean, there's no comparison. Punching Nazis is always cool, Twitter is just talking to them, which never is. You and fifty friends go on Twitter and dunk on Nazis all day and you're still just at a table talking with the enemy. Take fifty friends to a Nazi bar and throw punches, you've just improved the neighbourhood.

Nazis, people who aren't bothered enough that a Nazi owns it to leave it for Bluesky, and bots, lots of bots.
