It not only have problems with CSEM (the real-life stuff), but there are now bots spamming it and Twitter made reporting it a chore.
“Please provide more context”, WTF it’s literally just CSEM plus a link I won’t click even if my life depends on it!
I’m quite sad since a lot of the creators I’m following are still only there, or on the boneless fediverse app BlueSky (which is worse in some ways), and I still need to keep it around just to protect my user handle there and to look things up from time to time.
Once I’m at home from work, I’m locking my account, and put up a farewell message to whoever might miss me.
I’m not saying that the fediverse is perfect, far from it (especially certain segments of Lemmy), but it’s a way better experience than whatever Xitter (or Reddit for that matter) tries to be. I even have more reach, especially since the whole paid blue checkmark thing.

I’m glad you’re leaving that cesspool behind. That said, just not doing the thing is also an option. I’ve replaced Reddit one to one with Lemmy but I’d just as soon forego the whole thing. I’ve never seen the allure of Twitter and I have a Mastodon account but I don’t see it there either.
I think I’m gonna delete that as well and just live without it.
and go back to woods, leaving internet, computer and everything.
Going back to monke is always a valid option
If current Twitter was the only option for internet, I wouldn’t want an internet.
If you decide to use Mastodon afterwards, there’s an instance where a bot reposts everything a given Twitter account posts called bird.makeup.
I already have two accounts there I’m using, @ZILtoid1991@mastodon.world is my personal, and @PixelPerfectEngine@peoplemaking.games is for my game engine project.
This is huge. Thank you!
I’ve done this with every social media so far, Lemmy and Youtube are the only platforms I use.
Me too, but discord also
Dude I thought you meant Merlin (my favorite bird app) and I was like nooooooo, don’t tell me someone screwed that up too!
Yeah, Xitter sucks, I quit it even though it was my only way of reaching a few friends.
Instagram next.
I dont use twitter so I never understood the CSAM stuff. Did you follow accounts that post it or between it? Or does twitter have like a tiktok style for you page now and you get it recommended to you?
It was a bot on someone else’s account, because we’re at that point. It also had a link that I wouldn’t even click if my life depended on it.
