well yes, the community is thrilled, that's why they seem more and more inclined to be moving towards mastodon, random article: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/internet-culture/how-to-get-started-on-mastodon/

Hi all,

I'm back from holiday and am discovering that Tweetdeck is now shutdown and replaced by a non-free X Pro verified account to get similar feature ( https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/15/23833707/tweetdeck-xpro-paid-service-x-premium-twitter ). I personally cannot use Twitter without columns a-la Tweetdeck, and even less contribute to the @EclipseJavaIDE account. I also don't plan to spend give any cent to X nor to influence anyone in doing so.

So under all those constraints, I am stopping all my activity regarding the @EclipseJavaIDE Twitter/X account (and most likely will stop also using my personal account as well). These days, it was mostly about answering some random messages (questions, rants, comments) involving Eclipse IDE; I was using a search column to identify those (the search query I was using was `eclipse AND (ide OR java OR _javascript_ OR typescript OR rust OR intellij OR netbeans OR vscode)` IIRC). I trust that the WG will find ways to keep this account alive if it seems profitable.

Cheers,
