Elon Musk faces this major threat since the US presidential election

Abstract generation in progress

The changes in culture and content on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) are causing millions of users to switch to the new platform Bluesky. Since Elon Musk took over X, this social network has witnessed significant changes in culture and content. This has led to dissatisfaction from users as there are increasing concerns about misinformation, hate speech, and political bias. Under Musk's ownership, X has been criticized for becoming a political propaganda tool, especially in Donald Trump's re-election campaign. This raises doubts about the political neutrality commitment that Musk previously made, such as his statement in 2022: "For Twitter to deserve public trust, it must be politically neutral." Many experts even compare X to a "high-end Truth Social," referring to Trump's extremely conservative social media platform. Rumors of X's potential merger with Truth Social further dissatisfy users and drive them to alternative platforms. Billionaire Musk's social network is being abandoned. Bluesky, a decentralized social network developed by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, is becoming a destination for those leaving X. With over 16 million users, Bluesky allows users to customize their experience through curated algorithms and specialized content sources. One of the highlights of Bluesky is the custom domain system, which provides high authenticity for journalists and public figures. In addition, the decentralized approach helps users feel safer, especially when not controlled by large corporations. With the largest exodus wave ever, the future of X is facing conflicting predictions. Some experts believe that this platform could completely collapse without restructuring. Meanwhile, others believe that Musk may change his strategy if his relationship with Trump deteriorates. There are also concerns about X becoming a testing ground for Musk's AI initiatives, posing risks to privacy and data exploitation. This raises big questions about Musk's true intentions in owning this platform.
