I don't really understand this stuff, I have been using X/Twitter for a good 7 years or so now and it's been great. The list of people I follow is pretty curated and it's mostly tech and finance subject matter experts discussing raw data, who don't get political as a general rule, so I am rarely exposed to that side of things. Also after 20 years of this, when I do see something that is clearly inflammatory I just skip right past it be it a prank or someone pushing an angle on a political topic.

People have been speaking ill of Twitter since before Elon's Antics and I have never really understood it, for the most part the signal/noise ratio has been great. I think all these people feeling so strongly that they have to remove themselves from a platform or community says more about them that anything else. I hope Debian come back.
