It's easy to switch platforms. It's a lot harder to get all your contacts to switch platforms.

If my contacts want to meet at the bar that used to be fun, but is now full of racists and nazis instead of just have one or two wander in occasionall before getting kicked out, they can meet there without me.

Well one new bar that I heard is really good is invite-only and the other is confusing for less bar-savvy friends to get to and use

I'm not an active Twitter user, I'm just imagining the transition pains when the discord servers I use slowly start to migrate somewhere else
