Serious question, why is any non-nazi posting on twitter?

[–] nasi_goreng@lemmy.zip 64 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (12 children)

Non-Westerner that never have or realized alternative platform exist.
Artist that dependant on mainstream social media reach. (some artists already have 100K+ followers there, fedi also have limited reach due to instance blocking, e.g. you're on Mastodon.art and want to reach Japanese audience (mainly misskey.io, but t was defederated on most of Western instance.)
People with social network bubble outside Westernsphere, they only have exclusively local feed on their Twitter.
People outside Westernsphere that already tried fediverse, but moving back as fediverse is still Western-centric or does not have their own community on feidverse.
Community that does not have monetary power to invest on their own fedi instance.

It's legit applicable for people that have Twitter just for realtime earthquake warning.

At least its applicable for Indonesian users.
