You really can tell how well Lai's office is with social media, targeting different group with different platform.
On Threads, you can see a lottery for a signed magazine and cute baby crawling around during meet and greet with his family. Whereas on X, posts are more serious.

I’m still amazed to see this scale of demonstration on a Tuesday night.
Despite the bill passing around 5pm, the demonstrations are expanding as night falls. Shots were taken at 8pm, 7pm and 5pm. The crowd size is still shying away from last Friday night’s.

After the third reading of the controversy bill, this symbolic moment occurred.
Giant white ball were rolled into the legislature instead of people, unlike Sunflower movement.
Feeling is mixed. People joyfully pushed the ball around but also angered by the result.

Just admit it, you're of big fan of Tsai. Honestly, LAST JUNE.
Giant panda Tuan Tuan died of illness in Taiwan Saturday. Taiwan people mounred in various ways but Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen remained silent.But it was also Tsai who tweeted last June to mourn the death of Biden’s dog “Champ.” Many Taiwan people are ashamed of this “president.”

Never seen such creative protest before.
Supports made boba-style concert hand lights for DPP lawmakers, and each have a sticker with a bird with matching hair style.
The stickers on their clothes are also designed by protestors.

Where is my $NT6000 btw?
So the government is thinking of handing out NT$5,000 ($163) to every tourist who arrives in Taiwan in an effort to boost the number of people coming here. Is naked bribery really the best way to persuade people to come?

I’ve tried a new breed of mango with lychee fragrance in it, it was amazing.
Mango is the best. It has a smooth, soft, and juicy fleshy texture, and most of all it is super sweet. The sweetness is complemented perfectly by its own Mango flavored aroma. There is no better fruit in Taiwan. Mango is king, Mango is

The Republic of China and the People’s Republic of China are not subordinate to each other, said Lai Ching-te.
Did Lai's speech indicate any desire to change the status-quo?
No. Everything he said today were standard DPP talking points that follow Tsai's path.
If anything, Lai was extra pro-status-quo today. He mentioned the ROC 中華民國 12 times while Tsai only mentioned it 5 times!
