    Way too late to “fight” them this way, it’s already served it’s purpose for them. Everyone needed to have done this like a year ago, dummies. But yeah, still delete it anyway.

      Yeah. It served it’s purpose, he bought a mass social media outlet, let it run wild, influenced elections, spread hate and normalized even more extreme views to fuck with all the world. The damage is done. Claiming doing something good at this point when it should have been done at the early signs but everyone would call you paranoid is just non sense. Crying wolf and all that bullshit.

    You didn’t do that a couple of years ago when Musk decided to push his own posts and right wing content to the top of everyone’s feed? I dropped twatter that same day.

    Mastodon works well, tell your twatter refugee friends.

    Sure, do it for your mental health, but it won’t do anything else now. That ship has sailed, been torpedoed, and is now chilling at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

    That would require me to have X on my phone. I do not. Because I deleted Twitter when dipshit took over.

    Lol, nothing like waiting until the last possible moment to do the tiniest thing that won’t even accomplish anything at this point and then writing an article about it.

      Yup. Here’s what I did:

      1. recommend others not vote for him in 2016
      2. didn’t vote for him in 2016
      3. avoided TruthSocial and other nonsense during his first term
      4. encouraged friends and family to not vote for him in 2020
      5. didn’t vote for him in 2020
      6. continued to avoid TruthSocial
      7. encouraged friends and family to not vote for him in 2024
      8. didn’t vote for him in 2024

      See a pattern?

    That’s nice. But you should get a gun. Much more effective fighting method than deleting an app.
