This should have been advised many months ago. Now it’s too late. Shithead won.
It’s time to delete X? 🧑🚀🔫🧑🚀 Always has been.
Agreed
l never used *Xitter anyway
*It’s pronounced as Shitter
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
Find a small community of like-minded friends to hang with online.
Hell, I only visit Reddit and Lemmy for the big news for a few minutes before heading off to check discord and matrix chats and everywhere else I go.
Branch out.
I just tried that…went searching for a room and amongst some software package rooms the two I stumbled upon that made me nope the fuck out are “COVID-19 truth” or similar, and some pro-trump mafia thing that had the n-word in its description. I tried to search for something even in the state of california and the closest I got was a gay hookup channel.
Thanks, I fucking hate the Internet now.
Maybe Facebook is the right place for some people.
Are you saying for me? Cuz facebook sucks ass too.
I remember the old Internet. Honestly, lemmy is the only thing I’ve encountered that feels even like the newer part of the old Internet.
Never signed up for Twitter and definitely not X. Leon can give to his pals in Moscow.
Cant delete xitter if I never had it
taps head
That would require me to have X on my phone. I do not. Because I deleted Twitter when dipshit took over.
Dipshit is my 2024 favourite word.
Can’t. Even when it was Dorsey’s Twitter, it was too toxic.
People were on Twitter in the first place?
It’s literally one of the top 10 most trafficked websites.
Have you tried being in my own imagination land?
no, this is a psy op to make people think anyone was ever on twitter
Apparently so… couldn’t be bothered with an account to go check…
Twitter (I will always call it that-fuck you melon head musk), is just fox news for the internet, a fascist hate app.
…the only way this would have fought them was before the election, now they’re in the walls, that is palliative care.
That doesn’t mean leaving now isn’t better than staying.
But what if I’m an outsider and I was completeky insctive during these days?
Too late, Twitter served its purpose.
Deleted mine two years ago.
Kinda surprised it took everyone this long, TBH.
I never even had an account…
I only have one to read stuff locked behind a login wall. But even for that I seldom use it.
Delete your account :)
Make one just to delete it.
That’s nice. But you should get a gun. Much more effective fighting method than deleting an app.
more lame extremist nonsense. you aren’t going to shoot anyone but some loads into a sock. pipe down
vance first, then trump!
Used it from 2009 until around 2013. It was so much better before it was super huge.
Lol
