I have more than 410k followers on X and fewer than 63k on BlueSky.
Yet the same tweet about Russian money supporting the Far Right in Britain has been shared fewer than 100 times on X and more than 1,300 on BlueSky.
That's how much of a propaganda tool X has become.

Unlike Bluesky which doesn't downgrade posts for having links in them.
People deserve the challenge of facts & interpretation, to have the chance to entertain other positions in their own thought experiments. That discourse will diminish when differing voices become quiet.
But we still share a society with people who are jacked into the X/FoxNews/DailyMail ecosystem. Some of them are my neighbours. If we stop engaging they get the propaganda and only propaganda - that’s where I feel the dilemma
That’s 410k on the disinformation machine of a ketamine fuelled fascist.

You would reach more people, when you add a good description into the Alt-text field.
That is pretty easy, especially, when your image just contain text.
This way, you support visually impaired people and everyone else, who rely on a good filled Alt-text.

Yes, why?
It is a site run by a man who wants to buy the world and do nasty things to it.
It should be boycotted.
(Downing St, sweetly still calls it Twitter).
is there any co-ordinated campaign to address this?
