The European Federation of Journalists, #EFJ, says starting January 20, it will discontinue posting content on the #ElonMusk-owned #SocialMedia platform #X.

In a statement on its website, EFJ says it can no longer ethically participate in a social network whose owner peddles #disinformation and #propaganda.

@iuculano doesn't mention where they will post though. probably bluesky i guess.

they should just all create a european fediverse server for news sites. they can save money by all sharing moderation costs and will legitimize the fediverse for normies.

@tootbrute @iuculano I would be the best joke if they move to Threats. ^^°

@iuculano

Well, we are here, we are the good ones. We do not have to tell each other that people are leaving X. We should tell people at twitter.

I still have my X account, but I only post "leave X" messages there.

@iuculano I can bet they will go to BlueSky.
