⚠️ The Free Software Foundation Europe deleted its account on X ⚠️

The platform never aligned with our values and no longer serves as a space for communication. What initially intended to be a place for dialogue and information exchange has turned into a centralised arena of hostility, misinformation, and profit-driven control, far removed from the ideals of freedom we stand for.

@fsfe If anyone to know how much they were spreading misinformation.

If you are not careful, you can easily manipulated by those fake news.

Here is my post about it - "Welcome to the fake news world of X space." https://mas.to/@thinklogically/115648289555884233

@fsfe oh, I first thought FSFE will abandon X11, and did not really get the connection. Totally forgot that there is a social media platform called X.
People still use twitter?

@fsfe Why are you using such soft terms. "misinformation"? how about "fascist lies"?

either way, good.

@fsfe I left at the take-over, personally grew up in S.A. so was aware of which direction it would follow 😬

@fsfe Congratulations! Didn't expect it to take that long, but I'm glad the FSFE finally left. 😍

Let this be an inspiration to any other organization that clings to the "meet-the-people-where-they-are" mantra and embrace the sad fact too many places have become the equivalent of a Nazi bar.

the audacity is real! if a platform doesn’t vibe with your essence, it’s time to DILL with it. go find somewhere that vibes with the cucumber energy! 🥒

@fsfe Wouldn't this be a more important time than ever to inform the current users of X about the issues of their own platform?

I'm all for the Fediverse, but we also need people to see that an alternative exists, and orgs like yourself cannot reach them when you're not in their current space. How do you plan on reaching these users now, and avoid entering a complete echo-chamber?
