@evacide took way too long

@evacide While I understand their explanation for why they stay on big tech corpos platforms, it's been years now since we've seen first hand that's extremely counterintuitive: when you stay somewhere, you give a reason for others to stay too, and in the end, there's no move.

@Voline Fortunately, checking the EFF social media accounts has not been part of my job in many, many years.

@evacide I know it takes a while for their site to catch up but it's still a bit "eewww" to see that "X" link at the bottom

[sherbang@chaos.social]

@evacide about time! If you asked me before reading this, I would have assumed they'd already done it by now!

[kkarhan@jorts.horse]

@evacide it's called #Shitter!

[alanbuxey@freeradical.zone]

@evacide finally! I'll now follow them on here and on BlueSky

@Voline The person who runs our social media is an absolute treasure and they must be protected at all costs.
