Who uses Twitter?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

I used to use it solely for sports news updates. Once Elon bought it, kept constantly getting politics news that I didn't want. Kept adding blocked terms hoping to not see it anymore. Nope. Kept getting pushed right wing bullshit. Deleted and never looked back. It helps that people have actually moved to Bluesky. The biggest issue I have is with Reddit and Lemmy not having the sports communities here. Game threads for Orioles games had 0 comments. I'm not going to just sit there and post to myself.
