In the hours after Elon Musk completed his purchase of Twitter late Thursday, many avid users began voicing their uncertainty about the future of the platform. But with few obvious alternatives, Twitter users may be left with nowhere else to go.

Musk has repeatedly stressed his intention to rethink Twitter’s content moderation policies and permanent bans, potentially restoring the accounts of some incendiary figures. Those expected moves, and Musk’s own mixed reputation as both an innovative entrepreneur and someone with a history of erratic and controversial behavior, have ignited speculation about an exodus of users and advertisers from the platform.

But all have far fewer users than Twitter. “Apparently i have a mastodon account from 2018 ,” tweeted Tracy Chou, a software engineer and diversity advocate. “i logged in and it is tumbleweeds and one person on a soapbox opining about the nature of social networks.” Not everyone sees Musk’s acquisition as the end of Twitter, though. Some celebrities and conservative figures expressed support and enthusiasm for the Twitter deal.

No change and continue having fun

Someone could make their own alternative, one where everyone could have a voice.

A news outlet passing judgement! Class!

🤣🤣🤣🤣 LOOOOVE THIS. The left now feeling how its like. Well start your own site like parler because you did'nt have any were to turn.

No one is going anywhere. And if they do, they'll be back with their 'tails between their legs.'

Boo hoo

I think I will wait and see what changes. But I have no problem quitting, if I get disgusted.

Fascist always want to suppress free speech. That's why so many in the media as well as left-wing activists - I repeat myself - are so angry.

They've been nonstop voicing these concerns for months. This isn't really news.

I am sure Twitter will be fine. If not better. Let’s face it, Elon Musk is a very smart man.

For my part I am leaving the alternatives and going to Twitter !

They could just go outside.

And hundreds of thousands of freedom lovers RETURNED to the platform.

They can always leave the platform. That is the definition freedom.

Many?🙄 CNN has not changed a bit FOX - Right, CNN - Left

Don't give the guy a chance or anything! Typical left hysteria!

Elon 🇺🇸 whoo hooo let’s gooooooo…

Big Fat Lunchbox Communism? We are not supposed to know Montana is where it starts.

Idk it’s only been a day but it’s the same thing 🤷‍♂️

hahahahah funny to see liberals in panic!!!!! love it!

Tribel is a pretty good site.

Is this a metaphor for being stuck in the lunchroom with the nosey, bullies sitting at the next table…Because does anyone here know Elon personally? Or everyone? Bc he is unsilencing people? I use the platform for my own reasons ~ to try to garner true friendship & knowledge.

Let‘s go to Mastodon…

The irony. Living in an oligarchy and voting for an oligarchy and then complaining about it.

It literally couldn't get worse. Probably will be less censorship now which is the problem. Twitter is trash because you people want to control the narrative an push your own agenda on to people. It's trash.

Oh, so you mean that they might actually have to be forced to have their ideas challenged and be held accountable for what they say by people with whom they disagree? Oh the humanity!!!

People are so dramatic, huge % of the user won't even notice a change.

The big financial blunder.

Ya think he noticed that smells like silk? Be weary while wearing wicker butt bundles before you're seating is solidified Seymour

Who cares which billionaire owns the company. Twitter fulfills a niche!

ah you mean, left wing, cry baby, snowflake wokes who can't handle the very thought of Elon owning the platform where they can spew their lies, deceit and lecherous liberal ideas 🙄

Hahahahhahahahha

More freedom👏👏👏👏👍😁

Literally nothing is going to change about twitter users experience. Just follow who you want, block who you don’t.

they can go read a book

Leftists users reaction...

There's no uncertainty, it's just that people that some are so oppressed by divergent views. They want to suppress the views that are factual and against theirs. I bet this new take over is about to revert that

the three big movers and shakers facebook crypto twitter in big mooves afoot, the f c t take pact, with ..Awh the halloween monster monster stock, moves

Why leave? The FUN is about to BEGIN! 😹

Mastodon
