The other day, the British daily newspaper The Guardian announced that they are abandoning platform X. Today, SVT.se reports that Dagens Nyheter is following suit. Both daily newspapers refer to the fact that platform X's owner, Elon Musk, has used it for political purposes, writes SVT.se.

Yesterday, the American horror author Stephen King also posted that he is abandoning X in favor of Threads, which The Guardian has reported on. In the article, the British daily newspaper also refers to others who have left X due to the platform being filled with "hate", "disinformation and conspiracy theories" and exemplifies with the German football team St Pauli and the Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia.
