I have heard all of the arguments but if you're still active on twitter without a active presence on any other backup social networks, after the events of the last week, I mean, come on.

â@hacks4pancakes yeah I've been trying to gently coax people to see the light but many still don't. Unfortunately, some are folks I mentor so I feel shitty about just abandoning them on that hellsite even if they're kinda doing it to themselves.
@alyssam_infosec I mean, I know I was touchy at first, overcautious, but now there's like extortion, journalist bans, arbitrary banning of free speech. Come on.
Fi đŗī¸ââ§ī¸@hacks4pancakes @alyssam_infosec you can just say that you don't want to be on that site anymore and that if they want to continue interacting with you that they need to do so in an environment that is safer for you.
Give them the choice to do the right thing or lose access, and couch it as being a safety issue, and I think most folks will react well to that.
[I've lost a lot of contacts over the past few years who didn't feel like respecting my boundaries. It hurts, but I'm much better off having those boundaries respected...]
@munin @alyssam_infosec I have, thought my account will likely be shut off soon as linking to other social networks is now prohibited.
TProphet@hacks4pancakes @munin @alyssam_infosec When your favorite bar gets bought by a jerk and his weird creepy friends show up with inappropriate creepy behavior, would you stick around just because a couple of people you like haven't left yet? I mean, that's basically what happened to Twitter. I stopped posting a month ago and my feed just gets increasingly weird and creepy over there. Not feeling like I'm missing much, despite having only 15% of the followers I do over there.
@tprophet @hacks4pancakes @munin eh, I get what you're saying but it's a little more involved. If I felt like those friends needed my help and I felt a certain loyalty to them, yes I might stay. And hence my getting dragged back to #birdsite every so often to interact with some people.
