There is absolutely no excuse. It's not like he was an unknown quantity. No amount of disdain is too great for these people.

Demand? What?
You can just have a site that says things. You might just get a trickle of readers, and that's okay. Not everything has to try to rule the world. You can contribute this little part of it, that might amuse or inform some people, and not pile up yet more value to a terrible corporation like Wordpress, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit or (while I'm ranting) Fandom.
Plain HTML doesn't break. You don't need to update frameworks. It won't make the user's browser consume a ton of their RAM. Even if your image hosting goes down, the text will still be there. The biggest problems with HTML are external. Google giving attention to Reddit over your site, or de-prioritizing it if it's not "responsive to mobile," and web browsers choosing not to reveal by default what terrible resource hogs big sites can be. Check about:processes (on Firefox at least) some time, I've seen Youtube, Facebook and Twitter consume over a gigabyte of memory by themselves, apiece. (Nota bene, Mastodon consumes a lot too.)
It's okay to be small. That was what the World Wide Web was envisioned as, its motto: Let's Share What We Know.
I'm an old E2 member!
Anyone remember Happy Puppy?
There used to be rotten.com, which posted extremely disturbing pictures and I don't miss that part of it. But I do miss the Rotten Library, which used to be a bastion of suppressed literature.
My old stomping grounds, the indie gaming blog GameSetWatch.

Same here. Nothing could convince me to go back to Reddit or Twitter at this point.
It is a mistake to lead off with "here's the thing about Elon Musk," because there's LOADS of things with Musk, but in particular. Let's set aside how ludicrous it is to claim that the protesters are being funded by some outside source, because sure that's worked in the past, and of course it's the Democrats, those notably cash-positive people, who are doing it.
Elon Musk is THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD. If anyone could beat a theoretical money-backed protest against him, it would be him. Just offer to beat the offer of anyone funding the protesters. That's it! If they're only in it for the money then the protest would fold immediately.
More than that, Musk has literally paid people to vote in his favor in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race! The levels of hypocrisy are so staggeringly great that it risks materializing actual hippopotamuses on his properties.
Slant's one of my favorites too, I also play a lot of Loopy, Dominosa and Bridges.
They can't even manipulate their own fool heads.
