None of these smaller sites will replace Reddit. I'm mainly on Gab and Communities.win as alternative, they are much closer to critical mass.

What's the point of gab now that musk owns twitter?

Musk hired some WEF bitch to be the Twitter CEO. He's after the Twitter database for AI training, he's not interested in free speech or anything like that.

According to her LinkedIn profile, Yaccarino is also involved with the World Economic Forum, WEF, where she chairs the organization’s taskforce on the future of work and sits on the media, entertainment and culture industry governors steering committee.

The agenda-setting convener of industry, political and civic leaders, perhaps best known for its annual gathering in Davos, Switzerland, has long been a lightning rod for baseless conspiracy theories and Yaccarino’s connection appears to irk some of Musk’s right-leaning or anarchist base, who suggest her background undermines the platform’s commitment to free speech championed under current leadership.

It's probably something like this https://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/2014/aug/05/fortune-500-companies-crisis-woman-ceo-yahoo-xerox-jc-penny-economy

Musk's commitment is still strong, he just fired the Karen that removed the "what is a woman" video.

Nah, he doesn't care if Twitter censors. Just look at her background and you'll already see that she'll censor anything against their narrative. With the move that Musk make Twitter part of X Corp, he's probably doing something with the data. Maybe X Corp will have it's on AI research dept (we wouldn't know since it's private) so they can use that data to train AI.

That's fine, what you post on twitter is public and not copyrighted. If that's how he pays the bill to twitter so the site can function in fine with it.

I think he's just indifferent when he has to censor because of governamental laws.
