Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Frankly, why do people still use that garbage of a platform?

Those still there don't know better (lots of millenials, and older, folks and those barely online), like Elon's changes, or are there passively (syndicating other feeds).

Network effect. People can't leave because the people they like to talk with are they and those people can't leave for the same reason.

Because there isn't a good replacement. Mastodon is a mess with no reach and servers that will perma-ban you if you don't post for a week, bsky is still kinda tiny, spoutible feels like "all politics all the time", cohost is jank.

Nobody really left Twitter because Twitter is where everyone else is.
