I've been trying to stick to Mastodon and ditch Twitter, but honestly, even though I've gotten into the habit of using Mastodon every day, it's pretty hard for me to resist accepting information from Twitter.
It's ok to get information from places like X/Twitter or Reddit. It's even fine to have an account. But it's better to post your OWN material to platforms that best align with your sensibilities.
This. I still lurk reddit for information, but I will never contribute. Advertisers these days only care about interaction anyway, so I doubt lurking significantly impacts the profitability one way or the other.
What? I've been using Squawker and lately it stopped working because monkey boy elon borked something again in the twitter api. No tweets for me.
