People demanding others to leave Twitter often seem to forget that not everyone has the same experience on that platform. If one wants to argue that I should leave to make some sort of a statement then fair enough, but to claim I should leave because it has now become something it wasn't before doesn't at all resonate with my personal experience. Besides the obvious UI changes I haven't noticed anything else to be different. No one is forcing right wing/conspiracy propaganda down my throat there. My highly curated feed has the same content it always has and when I see something I'm not interested about I block it and it's gone. Lemmy is way better alternative for Reddit than Mastodon is for Twitter.
Do what you want but just be sure to know shit is going down hill. It's not effecting you now but doesn't hurt to start looking for an alternative for when these wide sweeping changes do start effecting you.
