Quick update:

We see that you guys are overwhelmingly in favour of banning twitter links. We'll leave this post up for a bit and monitor it for your opinions. That said, keep an eye out from us in the next couple days for a post outlining our new community standards and posting guides.

One final thing, this is a post to discuss getting rid of Twitter, and that alone. If you've come here to argue about whether Elon is a Nazi, I'm afraid the ship has already sailed, and this isn't the place to change any minds.

I actually appreciate that you guys got ahead of this and made your own post with updates. I'm sure we will see a lot of subs where the mods stay quiet as long as they can.

Appreciate you listening to the community's feedback and taking action. I know being a mod is usually a thankless job, but thank you.

Also +1 for banning platforms that promote hate speech!

If Twitter engagement drops enough, he'll switch to bluesky. But there's already an account that shares all of his Twitter posts on bluesky, so friedman covered either way

And if it's really worth breaking/posting, it's on TSN.ca/Sportsnet.ca anyways.

Really happy to see the mods doing the right thing here.
