Do they? I don't think the article is accurate to what's happening in any large degree. As another commenter puts it below:

Most of the 6k registered users on Quitter Spain are inactive and it has nothing to do with Podemos and the indignados movement (they use Twitter actively along with Facebook). Even the user that started this "false migration" (@barbijaputa) is using Twitter and is inactive on Quitter
