since r$ddit is all about taking content from other platforms, someone made a “Black people twitter” sub
since Black people couldn’t have something without White people copying or co-opting it, someone formed a “white people twitter” sub on r$ddit
when a bunch of us came here from r$ddit, various “-people twitter” communities were created
it looks like we’re currently on [email protected] (9.22K monthly active users) whose display name is just “people twitter”. There’s also whitepeopletwitter on lemmy.world which is pretty dead, and blackpeopletwitter on lemmy.world which is dead and locked. looks like [email protected] (10.4K monthly active users) is the most active relevant community; its advantage is that its more general, its disadvantage is that its on lemmy.world therefore contributes to centralization.
Black Twitter was also the notion that it was used differently by the black community than the white community.
The two separate communities were to highlight that, initially white twitter was a Karen call out community
Why do you censor that website? If you say the name in full (enough times), we will show up in search results for them.
Which website?
