DrossTwitter clone with zero moderation, if you’re into insane racist opinions, propaganda, or having products crammed down your throat, go wild. Awful platform full of awful people as far as I can tell

ScammersThis app is 75% or more full of scammers. I recommend not to download.

On par with XAnother toxic social media app, full of AI and irrelevant posts.
