Are they going to Bluesky ?

Media's credibility isn’t just about the content - it’s about the platform that supports it. If platforms don’t build trust into their core, the system collapses.

At Olas, we think the next step is creating ecosystems where accountability drives the conversation.

European Federation of Journalist, you can post here. There is no people here that can harm you.

They're more than welcome to come over to Bluesky!

Good

They hate actual journalists over there, they just want a propaganda machine that bows down to whoever they deem their leader, there’s no such thing as freedom of information under Elon Musk’s nonsensical rules

X’s downfall is beautiful 😍

The more people that leave Twitter the better, Elon Musk has to lose tremendously

So, EFJ's quitting Twitter like a diet after a weekend of donuts. Blaming Musk feels a bit like blaming Krispy Kreme for the extra lbs. Maybe it's not the ingredients, but how we consume 'em.

at this point if you don't realize that it is actually his fault then you might be as gullible as a child who hasn't developed a sense of object permanence

Nah. Musk has done a lot of damage to the site in order to get his way.

He's a child with too much power and enthusiastically abuses it without hesitation.

He limits the reach of news articles because he doesn’t want outside links.

Good to see

It wouldn’t have been hard to just let twitter stay the same. Reap what you sow I guess.

lonewolf5326.bsky.social•175 days ago

Well looks like that’s a good thing that means they might come here on BlueSky

gonikku.bsky.social•175 days ago

Good on them, it's pretty much impossible to navigate through the mud sea of misinformation that brews there, fake and inflammatory statements reign supreme and make it hard to figure out what's true and what's just propaganda and hateful rhetoric

Can't wait for Twitter downfall

itwont.fit•175 days ago

Took them long enough

therealmason.bsky.social•175 days ago

Good. I hope more journalists leave that awful site. Musk can’t claim to champion free speech if it only applies to him.

Musk has and will continue to feel the consequences of actions—this is what we teach our children, that there are consequences. Poor leadership. Self interest. Bad ideas. #BoycottTesla #LeaveX

It’s about time someone stands up. Bravo!
