There are some country based forums, nairaland for example. I think people can subscribe to the content on twitter and review it after reading then publish. I don't think i have seen anything worth paying for on twitter.

Hi Mxro,

I have to check out nairaland, I didn't know about it.

And I agree, there is nothing worth paying for on Twitter but I hate how the subscription locks a lot of people out. It is also really ironic because Elon has been quoted saying "Twitter is like the public town square"

Who locks out people out of the town square?

This is an interesting article and the last para are particularly relevant. I have been thinking along the same line but was not aware of those African platforms. Please interview them and lets support their work. Why should we not support our own now that it is clear social media platforms are there to serve geopolitical interests of big powers.

Thank you Karim. Appreciate it🙏🏼 Actually, Circo.Africa just responded to my request a week ago and they are interested in having the conversation as well. Cannot wait to have the interview and share with y'all.

You are right, until we have our own platforms as Africans, we will keep serving the geopolitical interests of big powers to Africa's detriment.
