On the 24th of November 2024, after 4 years, I finally left Twitter. I discovered that the
block feature change had finally went through, which
made me feel really uncomfortable.
This page is
not a blog, or a sob story, just a message for anyone looking for my Twitter.
Further, with a literal billion things being fucked up by Musk, this made me start to hate an open platform I
once loved.
The API changes. The verification changes. Twitter Circles. The worst rebrand ever. The block feature. I could go
on, but I really
don't need to explain thoroughly why I don't want to remain on a website. It's entirely up
to me.
If you still want to follow me somewhere, I'm on Bluesky.
My account will remain there.. and public, but I'm not using it.
I joined 1 March 2020, just before the COVID lockdowns (in Australia, where I reside). I loved using it. I
made some cool things with the API, met some cool people, shared my thoughts, and thats the way Twitter was
supposed to be.
You (I) don't need an "everything" app; and his plan isn't even fucking working.
It's probably not worth noting that before Elon went and did all this, I did have some respect for him. I thought SpaceX and Tesla were really cool,
and he did tweet some funny stuff.
You can guess where my respect went... but who cares? I'm just some loser on the internet, my thoughts don't mean anything
