    As horrible as csam is, and let me be clear that I do not want to minimize it, but that was their [final straw/last drop/final grain of rice] to quit xitter?

      Twitter has become a de facto public platform for disseminating information. To very roughly paraphrase Cory Doctorow, everyone wants to leave, but nobody can agree on where to leave to. It’s a mutual hostage situation for all parties involved.

      On one hand there is a final straw for anyone. On the other hand WTF why didn‘t everyone turn their back on that inhumane swamp years ago? It‘s beyond me. It was absolutely awful and a net minus for society the day the orange man became the most popular user on it 10 years ago.

      There’s a lot of FUDposting (like actual, not just critique) of alternative platforms on Xitter, all based on lies.
