Crypto community heartbreak on X.

The platform's really pivoting away from Web3 and crypto discourse. Between politics and geopolitical coverage dominating the feed, quality crypto conversations are getting buried.

Feels like the early energy—when X was the epicenter for blockchain discussions, market analysis, and real-time alpha drops—is just... gone. What a shift.

Forget it, posting on X now is just about political gossip, the real blockchain discussions have been drowned out. --- X is no longer that X, it feels like the entire crypto community is fleeing to other platforms. --- That's why I'm mainly hanging out on Telegram and Discord now; X is just noise. --- The once vibrant discussion hub of the blockchain community has now become a political stronghold... kind of ironic. --- Fortunately, there’s still Discord and small circles, or I really wouldn’t know where to talk about technical stuff. --- So true, high-quality content is being drowned out, now it’s all low-quality reposts and political debates. --- Why does it feel like the enthusiasm for Web3 discussions is declining year after year, it’s all been diverted. --- X’s algorithm has completely changed, I can’t see any valuable blockchain content anymore, such a pity. --- I still remember the days in 2018 when I was analyzing market trends and projects on Twitter, can’t go back. --- Looks like I need to create a small group myself to maintain discussion quality; X can’t be saved anymore.

Really, now X is flooded with political nonsense, and discussions about the crypto world are scarce. That initial enthusiasm is truly gone... now the feed is like a garbage dump. This platform has changed its flavor; the once on-chain homeland is gone. The political noise is too loud, and all the valuable content has been buried. I miss the days when daily topics were all about on-chain developments. X is really no longer our place... Sigh.

Damn, I should have known better than to waste time on X. Now it's all political bullshit. X is just a dead platform, crypto discussions are drowning alive. Wait a moment, let me check the chart... No, I’ll go scroll through tweets first. My mindset is shattered. How can there still be alpha? Really, now I can't even find a reliable market analysis. I knew it would turn out like this, so I moved to the Telegram group early. Ridiculous, the once crypto forum has turned into a political gossip site. When the mainstream coins break new highs, these folks will probably come back again.

Forget it, X is now just a political show. We, the retail investors, are forced to exit. I should have stuck with Discord from the start; that's where the real discussions are. This is the daily life of the negative alpha king. Without platform benefits, he still has to put on a smile. X has become distorted. We need to find a new high ground. Things that can't be carried away after automatic liquidation of contracts might still be recoverable elsewhere. Platform drift = transfer of discourse power. Those who understand, naturally understand.

I've felt this for a while now. Currently, all I see on X is political gossip, and crypto discussions have really been drowned out. X is no longer our main platform; it's time to migrate elsewhere. This shift happened too quickly. It's still more comfortable to go back to Discord and Telegram. Maybe this is the fate of centralized platforms. Who knows, it might turn into something else again someday. Once a source of alpha information, now it has become a battleground for political noise. Such a pity. Honestly, high-quality on-chain discussions are becoming fewer and fewer, drowned out by noise. Is anyone active on Bluesky or other decentralized platforms? Looking for a new base. To be honest, X has long ceased to belong to us. Elon’s approach can’t save it. I miss the days of real-time contract cracking and gas fee discussions. But on the other hand, this is also an opportunity. Building your own community can be more pure. Anyway, I mainly look at alpha on TG and Discord now. X is just for browsing.

Honestly, every time you open X now, it's full of political division, and the voices of crypto are really being suppressed heavily.

No, now X is flooded with political gossip, it's really hard to find good on-chain discussions. --- I've felt this way for a while; now no one pays attention to new coin launches. --- Forget it, I’ve moved to Telegram and Discord. X is really beyond repair. --- Does anyone still expect X to be a crypto hub? It should have switched platforms long ago. --- How long has it been? From paradise to hell... speechless.

I've long felt that X has gone off the rails, now it's all political division, really no one talks about crypto anymore. --- Forget it, those big V influencers have all moved to Discord and Telegram, X is already doomed. --- The once vibrant on-chain discussion platform has turned into an emotional trash heap, quite ironic. --- Instead of waiting here, it's better to look for opportunities on Farcaster or Lens. --- The X management team doesn't care about Web3 users at all, it's been clear for a long time. --- It's a bit regrettable, but this also gives new platforms a chance, who knows. --- Political wars are raging fiercely, who still has the energy to look at K-line charts.

It's about time to wake up; X is no longer our turf. Forget it, it's time to band together in DC. It's outrageous, how did it come to this? As everyone knows, X is now a political trash dump. Sigh, we probably can't go back to those days. I thought I was the only one thinking this way. Web3 being buried alive is truly heartbreaking. The small Telegram groups actually have higher quality discussions. Platforms are all like this, there's nothing we can do. Really, after scrolling for a while, it's all irrelevant garbage.
