EFF is Leaving X

After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue.

@evacide Bit late to gain any applause from me. Years too late.

we improve the world by applauding people and orgs when they make the right move, whenever

we only stroke our egos when we absurdly look down our nose at good moves, merely because the moves aren't of a high holy purity according to our smug sanctimonious preening

@benroyce @evacide 1/2 Calling me sanctimonious is wrong and utterly counter to the statement you just made. Talk about shooting your own foot.

For several years, it has been clear what Twitter was, and anyone quitting today was able to accept that for this long. Insulting me changes nothing. There is no way to pretend that didn't happen, even if we are relieved they made the right decision eventually.

Obviously, their decision was not based upon the right reasons; that ship a;ready sailed.

you know when i describe a sentiment you post a certain way, it doesn't help you to reply by doubling down and confirming my view of your rotten attitude
