Too late, Twitter served its purpose.
Used it from 2009 until around 2013. It was so much better before it was super huge.
Can't. Even when it was Dorsey's Twitter, it was too toxic.
give up social media? nah that's too hard for people lol.
Not give up. Just move away from corporate owned social media which generally has biases baked in and allows for easy manipulation by the company. The one we're on right now is not one of those and there are lots of other alternatives. Not that they're perfect, just that money and especially wealthy individuals aren't able to easily and singlehandedly manipulate millions of people by purging factual but dissenting information.
as someone who made their own instance, talk about it to family and friends and try to convince them to jump on mine, I definitely have not given up. your completely valid talking points are null and void unfortuntately, my social circles are unable to get people they interact with to jump ship as well. they just want their family and friends to see their posts and don't really care what's going on behind the scenes..
Its me trying to convert people to use signal all over again, but i won over many of my colleagues and family by telling them to jump on signal as my birthday gift years ago..... maybe I'll have people sign up as a Christmas gift for me this year lol

Don’t just delete the app, delete the whole account!
Better late than never I guess.
That’s nice. But you should get a gun. Much more effective fighting method than deleting an app.

Never signed up for Twitter and definitely not X. Leon can give to his pals in Moscow.
I’ve never used it because it’s worthless.
