If you're still active on X with no intention of leaving....

General
Why?
Up to this point (or a few earlier points) many people who were on Twitter remained loyal to Twitter. Most people I knew that were on Twitter have now completely moved over to Bluesky, or are in the process of doing so. But there might be a few that will keep their Twitter up and running until the very end, despite the events of the last 10 days, and X's AI mandate kicking in from today.
If you're still active as normal on Twitter now, then why are you? Bluesky has now surpassed Twitter in every way, and you're probably on Bluesky now. So is it really necessary to keep using the bird site; hell site; Apartheid 2.0? It's up to you, but you're running the risk of having your information and art being compromised, even after you took the necessary actions before today.
Twitter is a sinking ship; a sinking city; a sinking island. Is it still necessary to stay afloat on Twitter?
For those who don't know, I, ToonThick, deleted my Twitter account at the end of July last year, so I never really experienced hell! 59 days later, I joined Bluesky.
If you're happily active on Bluesky now, then what's stopping you from leaving Twitter?
And Twitter is like a parasite, so many say they leave and deactivate only to come back. The app is like a parasite, despite how toxic and hateful the app is, some are addicted to it.
I think Twitter's end will come soon. The platform has apparently lost 80% of its total value since Musk took it over, and he's just been accelerating the demise, which I'm all for. :)
