Durov vs. Dorsey

Not even a moment's hesitation.
Until we have an American with patriotic values and a solid platform for internet comms, we are stuck with what we can use without being censored.
Durov doesn't censor anyone. So for now, he's it.

So if we have to make friends with some Russians to help us figure out how to tar and feather our sellouts, then so be it.
