Stop using the platform, if you insist on continuing to use it, you deserve the shit show you are getting. End of story.
It's not necessarily so easy, there aren't substitutes for a lot of the communities on twitter. Though I did just get into Bluesky the other day and am already spending more time in there than on twitter.
Agreed, I am desperate to use something else, but the only place I can find a community is on Twitter. It’s not a techie community either, so the reason to move to something else has to be compelling and low barriers to entry. So far nothing else hits the mark.
Look, Twitter is going to die. When it dies you will have nothing in Twitter. This is the absolute truth that we know will happen. This "community" feeling is not going to be the same, not in Bluesky, not in Mastodon or Lemmy. When Twitter first started, people wanted the forums like feeling, we never got that feeling ever again. People who liked chatrooms, never got the chatroom feeling. Just as i will never feel those again, you too will not feel that Twitter feeling when Twitter dies.
