forums never stopped existing. IRC never stopped existing. you can host your own website for cheap or even free depending on your needs. quit twitter. you're the only one stopping yourself.

@atomicthumbs@twitter.com its very cool that people are advocating for a social media platform where your account can be just deleted at the whims of a bunch of "popufur" admins having a war over the server

yes, the admins on a Mastodon instance can read your DMs. And the admins on another instance can also read your inter-instance DMs. Hope you trust every single one of them!
