X / Twitter alternative platforms

Twitter is not what it used to be anymore. The name changed to X and a lot of restrictions were implemented for developers as well as users. They also made the blue checkmark available for anyone to get by paying a monthly fee. In this article, I will share some alternatives to X (formerly Twitter). However, I want to mention that I still use X and I'm not telling anyone to stop using the platform or anything. I'm only sharing some alternatives.
