Basically, as I've been saying for a couple of weeks, staying on Twitter or leaving is a personal choice, influenced by myriad considerations. But shaming people into staying or leaving is not a good look, no matter how noble the examples.

@LiberalLibrarian that was my take. I am not trying to build a following here, I just need an outlet for sharing my thoughts during this very isolating time

@LiberalLibrarian I agree with her. I don’t think you’re fighting racism by staying on a platform that promotes racism—you’re helping a racist make money.

@LiberalLibrarian The funny thing is that I ended my Twitter account (of almost 12 years) about a month ago. Not because of Musk but because of Twitter's own corruption and bias. I just couldn't in good conscience be a part of their community anymore. 🤣

@LiberalLibrarian If someone wants to stay or leave, it's not really something I'm going to waste neurons on.

There are bigger fish to fry.

Personally, I'm not doing it because I don't want to give Musk the satisfaction - not that he'll notice a peon like me.

@LiberalLibrarian Speaking personally, I'm likely to have one foot in both sites for a while at least, until and unless the rest of my friends make the switch.

@AbelUndercity @LiberalLibrarian Me too, I'd like to be on both. I noticed that Black twitter is generally staying for now so I appreciate Tim's comments in that way as great people I follow have said similar. But I also feel like people should do whatever the heck they want and it's not for me to judge.

@LiberalLibrarian I'm staying for now because of the community I've built over the years. I'm trying to convince them to come over here and escape the bs.

@LiberalLibrarian I was going to stay but my mouth got the better of me again… they say 🤔. I was out after the election anyway. Musk makes my skin crawl and no good is coming from this switch up
