I still think its a mix of everything on X, I was mostly talking about "preferences" and X became very right focused BECAUSE the left decided to go on different platforms such as Bluesky and even the hilarious tiktok replacement that was an app from China, the left wants to be on their own in their own echo chamber, and then wonders why X has a lot of the people from the right, while it's quite literally their own doing by going to a different platform with only them on it.

It's just that simple.
If someone doesn't have an account but wishes to participate in the community event of their favorite game, now they need to make an account of the website they do not like.
Now, they need to give engagement and metrics to the website they don't like.
And that is without thinking how clunky that website is for navigation and submissions of material, even more if you do not have a habit to utilize it.
It's a lot of loops that demotivates people, simple as, and the concept does not apply to only X.
I like Alan Wake series and couldn't nor will play the 2nd one because they are an Epic exclusive, and I have no desire to make an Epic account, even less to just play one game.
It be what it be.
Fair, but then not everything is for everyone, and not every single person should be catered to, that's how life works.
