I have been on the edge with twitter and reddit for a while and I have finally deleted my accounts that I have had for a very long time there. They are no longer the places I used to know, even more so with twitter. I am ready for my new time here and on mastodon.

Same.

I had deleted my main reddit account that I had for 13/14 years a few months ago. I created a new alt so I could check in and talk about some of more niche interests, but I deleted that 3 weeks ago, just couldn't be dealing with the increasing enshittification.

I've had a Twitter a/c since 2009, have a lot of mutual followers and a lot of people I know only for there, but decided today that it's definitely not going to get any better. I had a Mastodon account since last year, but it was very slow and quiet, and again, not a lot of niche interests I have over there yet. But this weekend's bullshit (and obvious lies from Musk) makes it clear twitter isn't going to get better. Even if the stupid rates thing improves in the next while, it will just be something else Musk decides which will be making twitter worse.

So I'm just going to enjoy the chill vibes and explore all the different communities here.
