        Except it doesn’t. Twitter and Reddit etc. has done everything they can to drive users off their platforms and still they don’t leave.

          Actually, they did. 90% of Twitter’s activity now is bots. The only people left are either artists who are completely delusional about their numbers (they have like 13k followers but barely get 200 likes), or mega nazis. Everyone else is no longer there and has moved to places like Bluesky or Mastodon. In fact, I myself never made it past 150 followers on my old twitter account and I had that one for 12 years. My current one has 82 followers and never climbed past that. Bluesky tho? I already have 170+ followers in less than two years of owning the account, and many other artists reached their Twitter follower count in a tiny fraction of the time.

          A good portion of reddit threads are also riddled with bots, so it LOOKS like nobody left.

            LOL is Joe Biden a bot? Clinton? Obama? Corey Doctorow? Molly White? Every politician and public figure in existence? Where’s your evidence for this?

              You have multiple search engines at your disposal, my man. Just search for it. Also, almost every single post of those politicians has thousands of bot replies and the pattern is always there every time someone with a high follower count posts.

                  I’m not your nanny. Google it. The actual estimates back in February 2025 were around 70%. Right now it’s probably even worse.

                    I’m not Googling anything because (I don’t use Google and) I already know you’re wrong.
