Do you think an European Citizens’ Initiative to ban Twitter in the EU would be beneficial and have a possibility of being successful?

I’m sorry if this is not a good community for this question. If not please point me to one.

    I don’t like the idea of banning social media, newspapers, books, or news websites. Even if they go downhill like twitter. Just opting out and ignoring them, will do. If many do it, it will collapse by itself. But there must be a good alternative and that is difficult.

    • @nuko147 @SchwertImStein Me neither, but politicians should not be using commercial and closed platforms for communication owned by people like Zuck and Musk that earn money with this… That is something I DO take issue with. And i don’t really see how Bluesky is better than X.

        Yeah, all politicians in Europe should abandon twitter. And surely all official offices. Many replacing it with bluesky, witch is a wrong move.

        Instead of leading the people to an open source and maybe not profit focused platform, they just follow the mass.
