BlueSky and Mastodon are much smaller than Twitter/X, and they're staying on the platforms, so this is a moot point.

BlueSky and Mastodon are both open platforms designed around the ideals of digital freedom and control of your own data and feed. It makes perfect sense for the EFF to remain on platforms which are aligned with their goals. This is like criticizing them for dropping Microsoft Word but still using Libre Office.
Smaller platforms with more engagement? Entirely possible they reach more people on those platforms.
In any case, my point was more about the silly idea that it's imperative for any organization to be on the 8th-largest US site.
