Only a few months removed from last fall’s mass cancellation of X accounts following the US election results (see James Turk’s piece on that here), it looks like we may be in for a similar exodus from META’s Facebook, Threads, and Instagram.
The Guardian’s decision earlier this week to stop posting on X finally prompted me to take the same step, one I have been contemplating for some time. Whereas the decision of the Guardian, which has 27-million followers, is consequential, my decision (with my 1,018 followers) is not. Still, for me, it is important to dissociate myself from what Musk has made of X.
