As Twitter ditches its iconic branding in favor of owner Elon Musk’s favorite letter “X,” its open source competitor Mastodon is once again seeing usage numbers soar.

    I don’t like twitter nor Elon but why would someone leave a platform because they would change their name?

    Twitter has been around for so long, many are attached to it on an emotional level. It’s older than my eldest niece; she’s known about it since she could memorize the damn word.

    So as dumb as it is that THIS is what pushes people to leave, I’m glad more are leaving regardless.
