Digital artists and illustrators are abandoning Elon Musk’s blogging platform X (formerly Twitter) over the introduction of a new controversial image-editing feature powered by artificial intelligence (AI). According to reports, the creators claimed that the new tool could be used to modify others’ works without their consent.

One such popular creator championing the boycott is Mu-jik Park, the renowned South Korean artist known by the pen name Boichi. Boichi is the creator of the hit manga series Dr Stone and Sun-Ken Rock.

Debian cut ties in January, so if you quit after that, you're officially slower to change than Debian.

That's one of the rarest and finest insults I've ever seen

Ubuntu is still on Twitter. You don't want Ubuntu to quit before you do, do you?

Damn. Disappointed in Ubuntu and I’m not motivated to distro hop. But maybe it’s time to bite the bullet. It’s tricky because I also avoid software hosted on Microsoft services such as GitHub. Ubuntu being hosted on Launchpad helped there.

Gits are backed up and migrated quick, so I'm not as worried about that I suppose.

Bwahaha.  It is a long-term stable decision.

It means you're ignorant or morally bankrupt, or at least flexible....

Misguided, uneducated, oblivious, and downright stubborn are other options. Sunk-cost fallacy can keep people stuck in a loop.
