"As Twitter — or, as it's now been rebranded by owner Elon Musk, X —
continues to be plagued by controversy, many people are looking for a new
online home. The good news of course is there are many other social networks.
The bad news is none of them are complete Twitter replacements.
So, first things first. You must set your expectations. For example, no matter
where you go, you won't find all your friends, followers, or social media
leaders. While it appears Mastodon is attracting the most people to date,
popular figures are scattering all over the social Internet. For example, Ryan
Reynolds, a.k.a. Marvel's Deadpool, is now making his virtual home on the
old-school Tumblr network.
Each Twitter alternative has its own rules, character limits, and
niche-interest communities. I've been using social media since the pre-Web days
of the '80s, and have joined every new would-be Twitter replacement to
determine which are worth your time. Bluesky is my pick for best Twitter
alternative overall, thanks to its lack of ads and similar look and feel to
Twitter. Read on for the rest of my top picks for best Twitter replacement."
