I mean, calling out Musks hypocrisy is not a bad thing per se, but is it really news?
At the end of the day a lot of people choose to remain on a platform that got bought by an gigantic asshole, who can now do whatever he wants with it. That’s how it works and being upset about it just shows that many users are either naive or delusional. Twitter can’t be saved, there’s nothing left.
Combined with the fact that most Lemmy users probably know about this and already chose alternative platforms a long time ago, articles like these rarely cause more than a shrug, at least for me.
But hey, if it get’s a few more people off of twitter (especially like large institutions as you mentioned), I won’t complain. As time passes I just tend to think that everyone who still stays on Twitter maybe belongs there.

Fair enough. It’s still more news than the endless reporting major news websites do (I’m looking at you bbc) about his fucking tweets.
But I can see your point that it’s not very newsworthy on Lemmy (nor is this new btw, he has done similar shit before)
