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.

I deleted my Twitter account when Elon reinstated Donald Trump's account - it was clear there was no saving that platform.

It's a Nazi bar now because the owner is a Nazi.

I still have my Reddit account, but it's becoming quickly like my Facebook account - I barely use it. In Facebook, it's to catch up with friends and family, and in Reddit, it's the more esoteric subs. But I feel dirty & gross every time I load up a page from those sites, so I don't unless I have to.

I make one post a month on Facebook. Usually within the first couple days. This month's was about how since the supreme court wanted to rule dumb last week, I was going to play along and disallow certain people from shopping at my etsy shop. Got me a handful of orders, too... which is nice.

Reddit I just use still to check in on if any weird news happened... but that's about it.
