Yes, this is what people miss about Twitter too. They scoff at Mastodon, for example, and of course Mastodon is unlikely to ever attract hundreds of millions of users, but the biggest "competition" to Twitter is simply disengaging from Twitter. Quitting, not switching. You don't have to be on any social media site; you can spend your time in other ways.

- prirun 3y agoThis is exactly what I did when streaming TV starting becoming so bad. I tried a couple of other services via account sharing, and they suck too. So instead of watching an hour of TV at night to relax, I do something else.
