The Debian Publicity Team will no longer post on X/Twitter. We took this decision since we feel X doesn't reflect Debian shared values as stated in our social contract, code of conduct and diversity statement. X evolved into a place where people we care about don't feel safe. You are very much invited to follow us on https://bits.debian.org , on https://micronews.debian.org/ , or any media as listed on https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Publicity/otherSN #debian

This is the way!
Benjamin Sonntag-King • mastodon (AP)
could you please go to https://openportability.org/ to tell the platform about your account on X / Masto / Bluesky (if applicable) so that other people who migrate can follow you automagically? โค
Good decision. TBH, I had no idea you even were on Twitter.
Debian's social contract is why I prefer debian to all other linuxes.
Frank Heijkamp • mastodon (AP)
A very good move!

Now do Meta's spyware "services" since they want to censor any post mentioning anything Linux.
Can you do the same thing for Meta profile please?

Thanks for supporting libre social networks, I appreciate this.

It really sucks that this is a step that has to be taken, given how big that platform is, but I completely understand. Much of the content on Twitter these days seems to run completely counter to point 1 of the code of conduct (Be respectful). I deleted my Twitter some time ago after the Musk takeover because I couldn't scroll for more than just a minute without seeing hateful content from people I wasn't even following being "recommended" to me.

Really? You had no problems with having debconf hosted in the Zionist state. You even refer to that illegal entity by the name "Israel". Does the Debian project have the same values as the Zionist state?
I understand a free software project not wanting to be on a proprietary platform, but this is ridiculous.

This is how you do it.

More people need to leave too.

Good move

It's great to see all these organizations coming around to making the right decision pretty much immediately after the consequences of their failure to do it when it was necessary manifest.

I couldn't believe the replies on Twitter almost all of them calling this a woke move. Maybe all of them are bots?

Either way, fuckin A! Well done y'all!

excellent
can you please be officially on Bluesky too, thanks :)

@debian Thank you! ๐Ÿ‘

Sad moment - this will exclude so many people (especially beginners). Guess other Debian based distributions will happily catch those people.

By doing it this way, you should at least leave all non-opensource platforms.

Thank you.
OSIRIS • mastodon (AP)
Great! But how can it possibly have taken this long?
LucKey Productions • mastodon (AP)
Right decision for the wrong reasons.
geobit • mastodon (AP)
thanks to break out from #neoreactionaries and continue supporting #democratic values.
You still are my favourite #distro team!
TronNerd82 • mastodon (AP)
Common Debian W. Great distro (tho I'm more of a Slackware guy), great team, great social values. Everyone with a brain should leave Twitter to rot. :)
Chris Lee • mastodon (AP)
we appreciate your act of solidarity against X. We also understand how hard it is to loose that audience and hope they migrate with you. Please know that you have my support as an 18 year user.
Tobi • mastodon (AP)
Very good decision, thank you very much, publicity team!
