The reasons (summarized using Copilot):

• The platform no longer aligns with Debian’s values, social contract, code of conduct, and diversity statement.
• Concerns over X becoming a place where people they care about don’t feel safe.
• Abuse on the platform happening without consequences.
• Issues with misinformation and lack of moderation.

Personally, I think that the discussion around this will evolve as the news spreads, but I agree with Robert on this one. Sure, X/Twitter has become a less welcoming place than before, but shutting out a significant portion of your community without seeking their input first isn’t a sensible move for such a foundational open source project.

Nah, I think I’m cool if Debian doesn’t respect the input of Nazi sympathisers.
