Did you even bother to read the article?

Luckily, the creators of the NERV App, Gehirn Inc, have created an app-based alternative for users to get information in real-time, as well as running a Mastodon account

The problem here is they need to stay where the users are. It doesn’t matter if Twitter is shit, as long as that’s where people are the broadcasts need to be there to reach as many people as possible. Hell, if 90% of the people are on IRC then they should also support IRC. Dumping Twitter isn’t going to make it better, it would only mean people are less likely to get warnings -> more people in danger.

At least with a half broken app there’s still a chance.

Switch to != just use it on the side. Drop X, loudly make clear why, and point people to Mastodon.

In case you would benefit from a warning but they get rate limited and can’t send it.

Have you actually seen Japan social media usage? They’re like the second largest Twitter market in the world. Why would they be more attuned to Mastodon vs Twitter?
