I think this press statement from the University of Limerick is an opportunity missed.

"Our socials were all over Twitter,
Which Elon then forced down the shitter,
Fash X was his brand,
It's not what we planned,
So off now, we joyfully skitter."

I love that University of Limerick is leaving Twitter, and I hope that it joins Mastodon.

Anecdotally, I have heard several companies say that Twitter engagement is low quality.
