To be fair, Elon doesn’t all have that money in cash. Also, like half of the Twitter buyout was made possible with a loan where he used his a Tesla stocks for like half of the operations as collateral.
Although I agree that he’s far from being broke, this can become a pretty bad financial decision to Elon.
I use Ivory for browsing Mastodon, and I’d bet that the app is more polished than any other first-party social media app.
The problem with Mastodon (and Lemmy to some extent) is that the onboarding process is not as straightforward, thus causing some friction for the less tech-savvy users.
Given that you’re trying to “get out of twitter” as you said, and that you’re posting this on c/fediverse, I believe a more apt suggestion would be to try out Mastodon, which is part of the fediverse, unlike Bluesky.
I don’t know if it’s somehow not available to everyone, but I am able to change the audio track on mobile.
