I truly don’t understand why people keep trying to use Twitter despite open and obvious changes designed to be hostile to users. Not to mention the reliability issues that continue to crop up as a result of axing nearly your entire engineering staff.
Some people can’t figure out Mastodon, but I don’t think enough of the people who can’t figure out mastodon are realizing that nothing would be better than twitter. And I mean literally just not doing social media anymore would be a marked improvement over using twitter
We need the big media companies to leave twitter - it seems almost every business and public figure that people actually want to follow has a Twitter account. This is especially true for media talents and talent agencies like hololive, and the YouTube/streaming space as a whole.
Once they finally realise that it makes sense to create a mastodon account it might actually push another wave over to mastodon.
I wouldn be surprised if talent agencies like vshojo and hololive eventually created their own mastodon or lemmy instances for their talents to have an account and community on - it seems the best way to validate and verify real vs fake talents. As well as moderate to their own standard.
People will be able to ask Is it @user@talent.agency? Yes it is, therefore they must be the real one.

sunk cost fallacy is a hell of a drug. it’s also why a lot of people stay in bad relationships (friends/romantic/family/etc)

Damn, that’s a really smart idea, and I can definitely see big companies doing this.
