Why are people still on Twitter/X? I don’t get it. The X on the building reminds me of a certain other letter on buildings in a certain country. People must be mad to still be carrying on as usual on there.

    > Why are people still on Twitter

    Because some fairly major services (i.e local police, fire, municipality, closures, etc.) use it as the main source of providing information.

    It’s more than mildly infuriating, since it’s a hit to accessibility, privacy, usability, and sanity.

    If these places simply used their own, official website to pass on important news, I’d have absolutely zero need for a twitter account.
