Y la Federación Europea de periodistas también abandona X
"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"
European Federation of Journalists to stop posting content on X
The EFJ represents over 295,000 journalists in 44 countries.

We asked journalists around the world who have endured attacks on press freedom what advice they would give their American colleagues. We have collected their wise and remarkable responses in a special issue of @niemanreports.org. “Dear America,” they wrote.

This ⬇️ We need platforms that encourage engagement with professional journalism. Perhaps even promoting it but at least treating links neutrally. Not downranking it. And absolutely not calling their own platform content media or journalism!
People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change
Traffic from Bluesky to @bostonglobe.com is already 3x that of Threads, and we are seeing 4.5x the conversions to paying digital subscribers.
