So, in essence, you don't have anything meaningful to respond with. You're perfectly fine with using centralized platforms when it's convenient and their ownership aligns with your ideology. You might say you don't like them, but you like them well enough to put links to them on your personal website.

you seem to be advocating for absolutism: these things are bad, so abandon them completely. i don't think that's reasonable, or workable. there is basically no corporation in the world who has clean hands. i don't think it's possible to divest myself of all of them.

I think it's not advocating for absolutism as much as moral consistency. You cannot in one stroke suggest that people who stay on Twitter are behaving immorally and supporting, among other things, the banning of journalists, while at the same time excusing your own use of Microsoft and Meta platforms with "[nobody] has clean hands".
