The LibRedirect extension lets you use any alt-frontend for [Twitter|YouTube|Reddit|Fandom|you name it] and automatically redirects you when you click a link. That way you can just save the original url and let your browser redirect for you. Would highly recommend
I don't understand being so emotionally attached to a personality to virtue signal about everything they're connected to. I'm no fan of the guy itself for many reasons, but it's just a service like any other, you either use it or you don't.
Like most media, it's non-fungible. Many people post there and nowhere else. You may as well say "Oh the book you liked got pulled? Just pick a different book to read."

It's not just a service, using it actively helps increase and spread his influence in the same way using Facebook/Insta/Threads helps increase and spread Zuck's influence, or using Truth Social helps spread Trump's influence.
The us system of government and many of its agencies are under attack by an administration that elon helped secure a win for. Excuse me for getting a little emotional towards a Nazi who supports the concentration camps we have on US soil.
I'll make every effort to avoid his products and bad mouth him every single time his name comes up.

Yeah, it’s connected to Nitter.
I had a number of bookmarked X accounts I would check in on via xcancel. I’ll keep them for now but I assume they’re done for.
I have zero desire to ever crate an X account. Keep closing doors, Elon, and watch usage drop even more than it already has.

Hardly any one is virtue signaling, but people vice signal all the time.

he is hated.
Have you considered that people actually have ethical beliefs and you're the one that is weird?
Have you considered that other's ethical beliefs may not match yours?
“actually have ethical beliefs” here → not “virtue signalling”
