People leaving Twitter now is not very impressive. Less "seeing the light" and more "Trumpgret".

I'll remind you that the Debian project left Twitter over a year ago. So the EFF isn't as fast moving or comfortable with change like ... Debian.

From their mastodon:

EFF exists to protect people's digital rights. Not just the people who already value our work, have opted out of surveillance, or have already migrated to the fediverse. The people who need us most are often the ones most embedded in the walled gardens of the mainstream platforms

That was valid back in, like, 2020. Everyone who ever had an interest in leaving their gilded cage, who needed help, already had more than enough time to choose. The people who stay over there now ,are because they choose to be beyond salvation.
