Hence why this article is about them leaving the openly Nazi billionaire's platform while remaining on other platforms that are mainstream and still provide a lot of reach :)

Exactly, and these platforms are only mainstream now, many of them had much smaller userbases before the X takeover of Twitter.

Yah, it's the EFF, they get significant latitude from their history.

[–] miked@piefed.social 3 points 24 minutes ago

As they should.

A non-profit that fights daily for our electronic freedoms can leave X whenever they damn well please. They decided today was that day and I am perfectly fine with that.

EFF is one of the orgs I often donate to.
