Please consider setting up an account on Mastodon and slowly move over as it takes time to build your network just like it did when you first joined Twitter. Get off Twitter.
As much as I hate twitter and musk like you, mastdon can not be used for news but solely a social network app, which I'm not intrested in any. Tried it for a while and mostly it's cat pics.
That is why I suggest just opening account and cross post so that over time the network can grow. The more who do this the more relevant the content will be on Mastodon. That, or we call all be held as hostages on X and survive to Elon’s desires.
Some people prefer that format. Some prefer this format and others entirely different formats. All should exist but should be decentralized as centralization is problematic.
Elon did profess the virtues of decentralized currencies, but that was all just a pump and dump in the end. He could care less about decentralization as he is all about centralization clearly.
