I've been on Twitter since 2018 (or '19), and during my short 3-4 years on it I've learned a lot. That it's an absolute hellhole of a platform.
Before the infamous manchild acquisition, it was already bad, and I left the platform with no regrets whatsoever. My only "positive" memory I have of the platform is myself and 3 other people starting a war with "animesexuals". Looking back it was really dumb, considering a reaction is all they wanted from us.
Since then, I learned a lot - I didn't get any new friends and nowadays people even remotely mentioning Twitter makes my brain tingle, in a bad way. I've had about 60 followers and I don't think I interacted with any of them, besides 2, which were my irl friends, which doesn't really count in my opinion.
I deleted my Twitter account at the end of December '22, and blocked any Twitter domains in my /etc/hosts file, I'm not looking forward to reversing my decision, ever.
