I finally quit Twitter. For too long I thought I could sway people with truth, convince with logic but that place is lost. I’m stubborn, it took too long, but I’m done!

Glad you dipped—hopefully it’ll be a boon for your mental health. Practically need a hazard suit whenever I check in back there.

I still struggle to wrap my brain around how people can be so ignorant and cruel and combative when consistently shown the facts but I don’t have psychosis so

Idk if a funeral or party is more fitting tbh 😅

I saw a report that 75% of active X users were bots anyway, so there’s a good chance you were actually arguing with the equivalent of a brick wall. Good riddance, I say. Happy for you that you made the change!

Where do we send the flowers to? Yeah, I closed that down a while ago. I’m honestly impressed you held out this long. Find your sanity where you can!

Funerals are a show of respect. That place disrespected you. It and the dumpster farts that remain there to harass you don't deserve you to mourn what that place used to be. Mourning means there was once reverence. You met a lot of people there, sure, but they would've found you regardless.

the obvious answer is people enjoy the thing they want to believe more than a thing that's true, but the more interesting, worse, thing is people prefer to believe what they want, even if that's worse for them

I'm not trying to insert a moral judgement in here but I've been off twitter so long the idea of quitting it seems alien. like oh, people still attempt to use it? wild

Understandable. Honestly while it’s nice to help people, your mental health is more important in the long run

I think this is a good move. Can't fault your good intentions, at least you tried, but some battles just aren't worth fighting and your valuable energy is better spent elsewhere. It'll probably be a boon to your mental health too ❤

I'm happy for you that you did that. It will be a boon to your mental health to have one less source of proudly ignorant vitriol screaming at you.

You should set a reminder to go check later that your old account didn’t become a zombie account shilling Trump coins.

Hope you get some more peace of mind here than there. Less bullies here.

dunno if it’s too late but don’t delete your twitter account or it becomes real easy to impersonate you (or so i read after the first big migration, maybe that’s different now?)

Proud of you. Trying to get to that point myself cause now everytime I open it, I regret it cause I see the stupidest shit ever known to man 🤦🏽♂️

It’s difficult to convince with logic when most of the interlocutors are just a playbook of propaganda

I remade my account to do some research and was immediately reminded why i left in the first place

Fuck twitter, Elon musk, and the cesspool of vitriol on there. Good on you for moving away from that place!

It's so rotten. The only thing that place does anymore is monetize people's cruelty and shamelessness.

My life immediately got better when I dumped it ages ago, and I wasn't even the victim of a vicious hate campaign there. Excited for you

I was never on Xitter, but I gave up that trying to use facts and reason with climate change denialists. You cannot reason with a cult member.

People legitimately DO NOT want the truth these days. They want to just hide in their self-made prison and bark and snap at anyone who challenges them. It's really frustrating for us folks that have any semblance of a moral compass.

Yeah, its just a loosing battle over there. Even if your not actively engaging with the hate content, its determined to shove it down your throat, despite attempts to curate your feed. And with Musk turning it into even more of an echo chamber, I dont really miss not going there.

Granted, was helped that the bulk of accounts I followed there have also made the jump here, so wasn't such a teething issue dropping it entirely.
