Looks like even more brands are going to vanish from Twitter soon.

One of Twitter's big advantages over Mastodon for brands and advertisers was that it was supported by a range of social media and ad management tools.

Not anymore!

Via Mashable:

"Microsoft is going to drop Twitter from its Microsoft Advertising plan next week, according to the company.

"Users will no longer be able to access their Twitter account through its Digital Marketing Center's social media management tool, according to Microsoft. Users will also no longer be able to schedule, create, or manage tweets or tweet drafts. In addition, users won't be able to view their past tweets and engagement on the Microsoft Advertising platform."

I see what you mean. I have seen communities migrate platforms, both successfully or with issues, and a slow sinking ship in a decentralized community (e.g. #BlackTwitter), where the large move of people probably won't happen suddenly like with a deplatforming, feels like it will be an uncomfortable slow split.

But, like you said with journalism, I sincerely think that they would benefit from the move, or even a split. Twitter is that bad.
