We have now completely moved off X (the platform formerly known as Twitter). It has been a long time coming, with rampant enshittification, uncertainty around platform changes, and content that has been increasingly unpleasant to interact with. Politics aside, we’re sick of going to check notifications and getting blasted with a feed largely consisting of violence, porn, advertising, the owner, and AI grifters*.
Instead, come join MetaBrainz, MusicBrainz, ListenBrainz and BookBrainz on Bluesky and/or Mastodon!
We were already present on Bluesky and on Mastodon, but we now have individual accounts for our key projects. Each project account posts and shares/boosts items relevant to that project, while the MetaBrainz account re-shares/boosts content from all our accounts.

We’re looking forward to hanging out with you!
*If you’re into AI but aren’t a grifting dirtbag, and know how to respect API limits and support agreements, you are very welcome to join us too! Our data is AI-ready and available on our datasets page.
bluesky account links seem a bit busted, eg https://bsky.app/profile/musicbrainz.bsky.social should possibly be https://bsky.app/profile/musicbrainz.org ?
Thanks ApeKattQuest, MonkeyPython – you’re right, those links changed shortly after posting this, I have updated them now!
