They should diversify where they post and help guide people to those other platforms, but just leaving X altogether wouldn't accomplish anything. They need to talk to the people where they are

    They need to be on Mastodon specifically.

    Really any activitypub compatible service. Honestly for a big company like that I dislike mastodon, bluesky, anything twitter adjacent, because then responses become a linear “stream of consciousness”of people responding and it’s hard to filter the signal from the noise. Honestly I’d prefer a valve community on lemmy somewhere that they run

    Its easier to onboard people by having stubborn people use multiple apps instead of a full switch right away. So X, Bluesky, and Mastodon in this case getting them off X bit by bit. Another being Instagram and Pixelfed. Reddit with Piefed, and Voyager for Lemmy/Lemmy. Etc.

    That's what has worked for me to get others that are tough to get off those platforms off them overtime instead of in one moment

    Valve dont need to be on X lol, anything they post in an official manner on any site, will be immediately shared by news outlets anyway.

    Same goes for any large company.
