At a time when X/Twitter is being manipulated, even through its algorithm, by Elon Musk for political purposes, X has become dangerous for democracies. It’s time for change, and we have a plan.
HelloQuitX is a meta-political and non-partisan movement that aims to help citizens reclaim digital spaces compatible with functional democracies.
Let’s take back control of our digital spaces
Social media platforms derive their power from conventions: we want to be there because many others are. Now that X/Twitter is being leveraged, even algorithmically, by Elon Musk for political purposes, X has become dangerous for democracies. It’s time to change this convention.
Changing a convention on a global scale is a significant event. By definition, no one can do it alone. When Swedes decided to switch their traffic direction in 1967, everyone changed direction on the same day, the Dagen H, with the support of authorities.
The election of Donald Trump was a wake-up call. It’s a unique opportunity to make our digital Dagen H: a global shift in convention toward using social networks that can mitigate misinformation, the growing polarization of society, and global opinion manipulation.
#January20
We have a date: January 20, 2025, the day of Donald Trump’s inauguration. After January 20, Elon Musk will, de facto, no longer be accountable to justice. X, as a digital ecosystem, will then be more dangerous than ever for its users’ mental health and for democracy.
We have a plan: to assist X users in their digital migration to healthier spaces.
The HelloQuitteX platform offers tools for finding your Twitter followers on BlueSky and Mastodon. Refer yourself now in just a few seconds.
On January 20, 2025, the platform will reconnect you to your audience on these social networks that respect the basic principles of digital freedom: control your data, control your audience, control your news feed. Everyone will automatically and effortlessly find all their followers who have also moved to BlueSky or Mastodon.
You can decide to keep your X account or not, but you won’t have to worry about losing your community. And news and trends will be shaped elsewhere than on X anyway.
