Embarrassing tbh

Just say "cis" and Le Epic X Dot Com will do the rest.

"I think I might stop drinking this"

You should do it. I had to stop using it after the ban here in Brasil and it has been a blessing. Been using BlueSky ever since and I'm yet to see a single Nazi or Nazi content. I had to manually block like 5 people only.

I always thought that using the hellsite was a form of self-harm even before the Musk acquisition.

[-] imogen_underscore@hexbear.net 17 points 1 day ago

you should. I got permabanned intentionally over a year ago and never looked back. it's an act of self care.

Install https://github.com/insin/control-panel-for-twitter. Auto blocks all blue checks and such.

If you're going to use Twitter, only use the Following feed.

[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

Not saying you're wrong, just wondering what we're doing differently. Maybe since I only follow COVID stuff and use Blue Blocker?

Anyhow, I fully support you leaving that place.

Idk, i use blue blocker but still get channer nword memes in my replies even when i was just posting about something as innocuous as a grocery store chain.

I've been spending more time here and tiktok and less there with the aim of eventually being off X (the everything app) entirely. I basically try to only go there to see reactions to breaking stories since other platforms move slower.

Any of the 1:1 twitter clones are too dead to spend much time on, like you scroll down just a bit and it's 4d old posts. I don't think we'll ever get something like twitter back because it was basically an accident.
