This chart Nate Silver made of the X accounts with the most engagement in 2026 seems like it might be useful to show decent orgs who resist moving their primary online presence off X. Is this really the company your org wants to keep?

@jalefkowit I think abandoning X is the most reasonable thing. I can understand at least a couple of counter-arguments, but they aren't very convincing to me. I eventually left Twitter over its toxification and what that was doing to me (and not wanting to be part of that culture). I was on there, so I told myself, because Trump was president and had started making world-changing announcements; I felt like I couldn't look away, and had to know what was coming.
Well, I get pretty good updates here and elsewhere. I don't need to be on X, Truth Social, threads, or any other deeply fascist-embedded platform. It's a burden lifted.
