Hello pharoers, here are my 2 cents:
Billionaires should not exist.
Elon musk is a nazi & billionaire, 2 good reasons to avoid giving him any
money, so fuck twitter/x.
I don't know much about bluesky but that it's funded by private investors
so it will likely become another twitter one day, because the capital
always support the fascists.
Cheers
