EFF is (Finally) Leaving X/Twitter, But Not For the Reason You’d Think

Kenyatta Thomas, on the EFF blog:

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. The math hasn’t worked out for a while now.

Their reason for leaving is reduced reach: their posts aren’t getting the same number of impressions they used to. I’m happy to see them leave the shithole, and any reason to do so is commendable, but it would have been nice if the reason was to avoid being in a Nazi bar, rather than fewer people are hanging out with us at the Nazi bar.
