I think there are still too many posts on here but especially on #bluesky that are commentaries on screen shots from #XDotCom - it’s an abuser as well as a nazi bar now, nobody should be taking anything from it imo

They did a roundup of some other brands' #AprilFools

The #DawnButler one sounds like it might have been fun except that it was on #Xdotcom so probably a bunch of racist bile as replies

From singing nappies to taxi-style toilets: would you have fallen for these April fools?

It is that time of the year for media and product pranks. Here is our roundup of the best of them

Another petition here - stop the government & UK public bodies using #xdotcom as a public service broadcasting platform. There is no good reason why they shouldn't use #Mastodon or #Bluesky instead. They could even host their own servers and federate to keep public control of public announcement data

Petition urges public authorities to discontinue their presence on X launched by councillor

Ever think of what's in the middle of a sw@stika? #elonmusk #xdotcom
Attempting to get my #petition to halt #UKgovernment and public bodies using #xdotcom for information broadcast past the standards - we shall see if it is ruled non-compliant for mentioning #ElonMusk by name.
Yes, I am prioritising enthusiasm for commercial ventures that ditch or minimise use of #Xdotcom as that gives me a stronger steer on their actual values than anything else

Got an email from #GitNation about a big #ReactJS event. Weirdly they're still leading with a push to "tweet" about it on #Xdotcom

Despite boasting about being setup by #OSS enthusiasts there are no links to #Bluesky let alone #Mastodon on their site or their marketing emails. Pretty disappointing https://gitnation.org/

Happy to read that #Bluesky is attracting #TwitterRefugees but slightly worried that a critical mass might develop over there and I'll feel pressured to join in. I logged out of #Xdotcom a while ago for obvious reasons & I feel like I get as much scrolling microblogging as I need here on #Mastodon plus I am happy that this place cannot be bought & sold

Bluesky adds 1m new members as users flee X after the US election

Social media platform has become a ‘refuge’ from the far-right activism on X, experts say, after Elon Musk teamed up with Donald Trump
