MODERATORS
They're reducing and not leaving X because there's fucking nobody on mastodon in comparison. Reach still matters and the fediverse is very hostile to normies
Its a message about aligning with certain ideals and certain people.
Well obviously. I was calling them out for the reason for the half-measure. They want to signal their values while not abandoning the larger shittier advertising market. I've never used Twitter/X because it's always been an obvious cess pit but organizations can't resist that place or Reddit, or so it seems.
