There are real Twitter alternatives, but no clear Twitter replacement. 

That is why so many are stuck. They just want to go somewhere and have it the same. 
 @09e1d236 @f8d9bc1c @df5e4030 Twitter was unique in the way users could retweet and foster conversation. Then they added an algorithm which shifted things and made more extreme posts and comments more visible. Then, because early creators had taken the company public, leadership focused on the revenue problem and priorities changed. New features muddled things. Then, of course. A rich guy bought it. End of platform. Perhaps sooner than later. Brand X.
