    There’s literally no need for xbirdsite anymore.

    1. Almost no one I follow on twitter is on those other sites
    2. Almost none of the people that follow me are on those other sites

        Yeah, but you can’t make them move, can you. People are like birds flocking, they want their communities, and until people start to move organically they won’t go. You can talk to them all you like about how it’s better and how it’s not scary, but nobody’s going to go anywhere that doesn’t have the content they want.

      It’s so annoying. The people I follow keep complaining about musk. Their followers keep telling them to move to Mastodon. But they don’t. What are they scared of? They’ll lose followers? Because I’m pretty sure if they switch and put a link on their twitter, a lot will follow.

      At least there’s a bird.makeup instance that reposts tweets to mastodon so you can follow them but you can’t interact with them.
