Most people are just very focused on chilling, talking about what they like, and supporting each other. Its honestly super sweet to see. Twitter just made normal to push negativity. Its real shame.
An article I saw on here the other day summed it up perfectly.
It isn't *just* the fact that he introduced so many dumb changes, it's the fact that everything on the site has his grime on it. It's impossible to use X without being reminded of him and I'm incredibly tired of thinking about Elon.
If I click Twitter the first thing I see is GROK then some kind of ad then some person I don't even follow or care about and then maybe If I'm lucky the 4th thing I see is at least from someone I follow 😅 that on top of terrible policies/updates and the general vibes there it's become awful
100% the same awful experience. I also found that even though I said multiple times to not show his tweets, it still always filled my feed with Elon's responses.
I can't overstate enough how god-tier it is to be able to click any post and see actual real people with (usually) good takes again
The blue check change ruined the site, remotely political tweets were absolute cesspools in the replies and interesting discussion on gigantic accounts got axed
There was once a time where you'd see actual interesting discussion--or at least discussion actually relevant to the tweet--on those big engagements accounts like Historic Vids or whatever
Now it's a sea of blue checks posting completely unrelated garbage
Those posts without a single human response to main content of tweet are so annoying. I also really dislike Twitter pushing up accounts who are very toxic but are subbed so they get bumped above everyone else. Reading replies to certain tweets became unbearable.
For real, I never interacted on social media much because it was so much constant hate, but on here it's really a space to just share things we love with others who do too. I love it! And unlike twitter, I actually feel able to curate my feed, fully

I only had one issue with someone right after election night and I ended up blocking them.
Everything feels calm

Really is night and day when looking at the two sites
