    Honestly, I don’t need to see reasons. Or rather, I already see the reasons. What I don’t see any reason for is staying unless you’re a fascist.

    Every time someone posts something on that place or a link to there, I just assume they are the sort of person who is fine being in the room with Nazis.

      It is, they are switching from X to wayland.social, a mastodon instance.

      (/s, they aren’t actually doing this though.)

    Unfortunately the accounts listed under Social network accounts of Debian teams and Social network accounts of Debian contributors are almost exclusively Twitter accounts.
