Many users of the social media platform X are announcing their departure from the site, expressing dissatisfaction with ongoing issues related to censorship, reduced visibility of their posts, and stagnant growth. A significant number of these users are reportedly switching to Instagram, which they claim has fewer censorship problems.

This trend has been noted by various users who feel that their content is not being adequately promoted on X, leading to frustration and a decision to migrate to other platforms. The shift to Instagram is seen as a response to these challenges, with users highlighting the perceived lack of censorship on that platform.

As previously reported, similar situations have arisen in other contexts, such as protests in Mexico City over cartel violence and corruption, indicating a broader pattern of public dissatisfaction across various platforms and issues.

The ongoing discussions among X users reflect a growing concern about content moderation practices and their impact on user engagement and satisfaction.
