Twitter is no more ...

Well today is the day folks. Twitter is more. It's now X.com

Elon Musk has even made it re-write X.com if you type twitter on the platform šŸ˜‚

I know some of you will not miss it one iota.

RIP Twitter.

A tainted brand if there ever was one. Associated by many with mass censorship, election interference and wokeness.

It went the way of Malcom Twitter, Mac OS-Twitter, The Twitter Commandment (”Though Shalt Not Covet”), and King Louis Twitter, “The Quarreler”.

Good riddance to Democrat Twitter. Welcome independent X.

I rarely use Twitter / X. I changed my password in January, made sure 2FA was on and all was working fineā€¦until last week when I couldnā€™t log in. I tried to reset my pw again, but it said it could not verify me and I was free to create another account. There is zero support to fix this. I donā€™t know if somebody stole my acct. Absolutely infuriating.

Intent on being supportive, i read an hour a day. Even advertising.
There are still many vile liberals remaining who continue to write puerile swill with many personal attacks. So i took to blocking them. When a random comment was reposted by me, i got banned for two weeks. So I choose not to participate by blocking X. Took me two days to break the habit.

I used Twitter for a bit and I can see how it could be fun/addictive to people but every comment is so nasty that it just seems like everyone wants to be as outrageous as possible in hopes of getting a reaction. It gets boring after awhile

I finally cut the cord with Twitter/X. I unfollowed everyone before doing so. FR is the only place I now post anything.
