Why can we not start using alternatives to twitter? Also, why are we not asking our government to do the same?

Current platform: Twitter, owned by some dude who is not very good for our country or any democratic country for that matter.

Alternative; Bluesky (maybe?)

Please feel free to suggest more and also which one is better? And how can we overcome the resistance?

Edit: I see there is a petition at ourcommons.ca that someone posted to get the government to stop using it (number e-5359, in case anyone wants to check it out and sign). I signed that and I think everyone should.

But still I think we need to move ourselves too, and find out how and where.
