This is absolutely awesome! The @leavex campaign now has their website up an running, so we can see exactly which members of the EU parliament still support Musk's disinformation platform X, and avoid voting for them.

I hope @leavex expands to add every national parliament — the disinformation has to end.

Se their excellent overview here:

Please boost this to support the campaign.

@randahl
I'm glad politicians are leaving X, but I wish Mastodon was safer for minorities.

Unfortunately it will remain very "monochrome" until the abuse side is looked at more.

@roomey genuinely, where is safer for minorities than Mastodon? 🤔

@randahl there are a number of places, the best way to find out is actually see where minorities are currently using for social media.

There was a push to move the BLM twitter movement to mastodon when Elon bought it out, but it didn't take. There was a lot of racist abuse sent, and at the time (and my understanding is it is still the case) the anti abuse features weren't up to the standard needed.

A lot of folk just left at that stage, to places like bluesky for example.
