Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince posted a graph to both Threads and Twitter today (Cloudflare’s communications VP Daniella Vallurupalli confirmed it was him) showing what he says is Twitter’s DNS ranking from January to now.

A key to get people to change over is heavy advertisement of Lemme and Mastodon. Sadly a key also is celebrities going over to them. I think Stephen King did.
