    YMMV in other countries.

    Also, fuck contracts. I've been using prepaid plans for ages.

  • X down – latest: Twitter and Grok not working in another major outage

    Jump

  • Nope. Not that I've seen any myself.

    Fact is, every other platform has been consored to oblivion.

    You can post free content on reddit if you enjoy giving your work away for free. But if you're linked to a pay site you'll eventually be banned.
