Elon Musk’s Neuralink, a medical device company, is under federal investigation for potential animal-welfare violations amid internal staff complaints that its animal testing is being rushed, causing needless suffering and deaths.

If they stick a Neuralink in Elon's brain and it cures him of being such a douchenozzle, then I'll buy ten.
That would require something with his name behind it to actually function.

Let's be fair here: it all works till he gets his ignorant, useless, stupid hands on them.

Anti-Trans Propagandist Abigail Shrier Among “Team” Given Access to Twitter Data by Billionaire — Assigned
Shrier, along with Bari Weiss and Matt Taibbi, have been given access to a large amount of data on Twitter’s past moderation decisions by Elon Musk. The three share at least one ideological belief in common, anti-trans bias.

Because like every other powerful asshole, he's gotta hurt some trans people along with everything else he's wrecking.
Well Mastodon seems to be shaping up to be that for everyone not sucked into TikTok. Furries and the Infosec community have been there en masse since the purchase actually went through, and various organizations and other people have been trickling over there too. The Auschwitz Museum just got an account on some instance this week for example, and a bunch of the EU government types have all been setting up on a European based instance. Just find an instance with a community you vibe with(avoid mastodon.social though - it's got horrible moderation compared to the smaller instances) and away you go. Chronological timelines and no placement algorithms, and you can follow people on other instances with no issue, but your local admins run the thing, so it's like forums in that respect. Format-wise though, it's basically the same as Twitter with some improvements(Edit button with edit history visible, 500 character default, built-in custom content warning system you can use, etc). I actually almost considered suggesting the creation of an Allspark Mastodon instance, as AFAIK there's no Transformers-themed instances, but both Discord and the forums kind of already cover the same territory between them.
Semi-official guide here
This one should be pretty good too
And if it gives you any idea, from what I've heard the King twit's apparently been causing links to Mastodon things to get set "Sensitive"(aka adult content) which removes them from search.
As for the others:
cohost - A Tumblr/Twitter hybrid. Became a victim of it's own success, with people waiting over a week for their account to be approved.
hive.social - App-only twitter clone. Last I heard, shut down for good after security folks found it was wide open to hacking.
Tumblr - Does seem to be getting a resurgence, and it is established already, but AFAIK doesn't work quite the same if you want it to work the same as Twitter. Also from what I heard they're looking at adding a plugin to integrate with the Mastodon fediverse so if that goes though you should be able to follow tumblr folks from Mastodon and vice versa.
TikTok - I assume this is where all the younger folk are going or have gone. Video-focused, so it depends on if that's your thing.
counter.social - This is just a modified Mastodon instance.
Post - Not been hearing good things about this and AFAIK is also another Mastodon instance.
Some artists are also returning to Instagram, and Inkblot is a new art site trying to establish itself with DA cratering itself(due to the AI art stuff) but I haven't really given it much of a whirl yet.

I thought it was because his ex dated a trans woman.
I didn't know about his daughter, but that does make it even worse.
And he's an anti-vaxxer now too
The next time The New York Times asks me to resubscribe, I'm going to reply with a link to that article and a link to that tweet.
