Might get more artists to move to Bluesky at least
You can always leave their @handle if you want to credit them. Most artists also have other channels. If they only have X... Well sucks to be them but it's thteir choice.
A more fractured internet is coming. Posting sources will be forbidden. Discourse will become more polarized, disconnected, and extreme.
Most of these Reddit bans on Twitter are also half assed. They still allow screenshots of Twitter posts. That means the content is still spread, and Twitter remains relevant.
Lots of these subreddits don’t even get a lot of Twitter links in the first place. Like for lotrmemes it makes zero difference.
That said, Musk and Twitter suck. I have deleted my Twitter account three years ago.
However there still is some information, where Twitter is a good source.

That's not true. Gondor uses Twitter instead of beacons to call for aid now.

I agree. There are some great OSINT posters that share all sorts of information you won't find anywhere else. For example when Israel struck back at Iran after the initial wave of missiles and drones- it was a guy on twitter who geolocated and found the satellite images of what they hit.
And that information directly contradicted the Israeli official narrative. You won't find it on NY Times. You won't find it on Washington Post. Hell, you'd have a hard time finding it here or on reddit. That's just one example, there's a wealth of live data about Russia v Ukraine as well. One thing I've really learned the last 3 years since 2022 is that the mainstream media will completely lie to you. It isn't just bias, it's outright lying. So people online who are dedicated to the truth and provide receipts, I find, is a breath of fresh air. It allows humans without privileged information to go online and actually see with their own eyes what is happening on the ground. It's something that frankly hasn't been the case for any time in human history. Although I think it's going to be a short window of time that will be true.
I think Twitter has progressively been becoming more censored. For now, most people are more or less ignored if you aren't talking about the hot topics- but I think very soon anything against official US narrative will be banned. Same thing with Facebook, Tiktok, etc.
We're seeing the social media sites align themselves with the US government in preparation for the next global war. The first thing to go in war is the truth. Soon there will be a giant firewall and we won't be able to see content from overseas. Initially people will be able to use VPNs and other methods and then eventually that will be met with criminal charges.
I did see a sub called fullmoviesonyoutube or something where a mod soloed the ban. Pretty amusing to read the user comments in that one
