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!)

"No one could have seen this coming," agreed top content creators on Bluesky assuring their millions of followers, they would stay and fight to keep Bluesky blue. #Bluesky
No problem. Happy to have the opportunity to link to the other post. We are all scattered right now. Thanks for all you do!
