@viticci Meh. Unfollowed all your accounts. Odd move of yours.

@viticci they just released normal people not on fucking masrodon

@viticci Well, I guess closemindedness and shitposting is not exclusive to X, as all the replies here prove very convincingly.

Do what is necessary for your business, Federico, and don’t listen to all the haters.

Haters gonna hate 🤷🏼‍♂️

@viticci 👎

@viticci Buh-bye.

@viticci gross. Do better.

@viticci As an indie developer, I deeply appreciate how you have been, and continue to be, a force for good in this world.

The world is messy and I wish you didn’t have to make this compromise. Every one of us makes a mix of decisions that help and harm the world, but what matters is the balance, which for @macstories is massively positive.

Hang in there and (huge) thank you for your work.

@viticci TLDR:

@viticci I applaud the move, the reaction to it shows how deeply people have fallen into their own algorithmic bubbles. Tribalism needs to stop. 𝕏 is one of the more politically diverse major platforms and reflects the real world far better than ideological echo chambers like Mastodon. Are there bad actors on 𝕏? Of course—but they exist on every platform. Most of the criticisms people are making about 𝕏 could just as easily be made about the internet as a whole, yet no one is abandoning that.

@viticci I’m really sorry for you having to take that decision. I know it’s been a hard choice to make between what it’s right and what the business needs. I hope it doesn’t damage MacStories reputation by a lot, and hope you will still be supporting alternative platforms like Mastodon and BlueSky.

@viticci Not ok.

@viticci It sucks for you all, getting all of this hate from this. If you ran a physical store, selling physical things, at some point a nazi might walk in, or a pedophile, or thief.. Any store operator as to still sell their goods regardless of what that person thinks.

This is no different. You’re a business trying to sell a product. None of the people posting this hate towards you will even go on Twitter to see these posts anyway.

@viticci Sad, so I’m saying goodbye here.
The info on AI was interesting, since AI is indispensable today.
But the fact that you took such a strong stand against AI, are now promoting it…

Some people try to hold on to their values, while others are only too happy to trade them for money—it's sad.

And now you actively collaborating with Nazis, this is too much.
When will you celebrate ICE and the murder of people? Next year?

@viticci Mmm… So you're looking for the american nazis' money now. Right.

There’s a reason why X is a residual network in Europe

@viticci Weak sauce 👎🏻
