9. I never have been and never will be on Twitter, especially now. I'd say you're not missing anything.

My "social media," such as it is, is pretty much limited to DU. I don't have the time for it, and definitely don't need to have algorithms shoving things at me I don't want to get into my brain. And I don't need to spend my non-existent spare time doom-scrolling.

ALL the problems with people being influenced negatively by social media would go away if people simply stopped looking at social media. It's really very simple.

Yes, yes, there's good stuff on there, we've got to keep it from going to the dogs, yadda, yadda. Doesn't matter. With Muskovite at the helm, firing all the software engineers, it's going to be irredeemably hacked and/or crash and burn of its own accord within months, I think.

I'm a Luddite, I know.
