Partisan Quick Guide To X Alternatives

So, you're finally deciding to leave X. Good for you. Here are your choices and you can pick more than one:

1. Threads - Commercial (Meta). Lots of popular ex-X accounts. Looks like X. No ads yet. Algorithm driven.

2. Bluesky - Commercial (Private). Looks like X, No ads yet. Customizable algorithm.

3. Mastodon - Open System Collective. Totally Awesome. Doesn't look like X. Threads/Bluesky bridges. No Algorithm (That's a good thing!)

@mastodonmigration Blue Sky won't survive without some kind of monetization -- ads and/or AI mining or whatever -- unless it becomes a giant sinkhole into which investors throw money. It could be supported by a nonprofit foundation but remember that "nonprofit" doesn't mean "no revenue".
