I have never had a Twitter account, but I have clicked on and read numerous tweets.

That stops now.

If I unknowingly access a tweet, I will move on as soon as I realize it is Twitter.

I am sure the attitude of many is "So what?" I simply want to make it clear that I hope the little blue bird meets a hungry cat named "backlash".

1. Same. Dick rocket boy needs to lose big.

It’s yet another platform they have taken over though.

Same here.

3. Time to leave twitter. If I recall Musk was a part of trump's administration or something like that

If the un-American fascist buys Twitter then leave it. We can't be funding a fascist pos. Senators and Congressmen should leave. Advertisers should leave and not support a racist, bigot and fascist platform that welcomes it. Create another message media app. There will be a big opportunity for that.

11. Can you link to Musk being "part of Trump's administration"?

This is getting a little surreal.

4. I've never had one either.

I'm new here and I just clicked the 'tweet' button at the bottom of your post. Twitter wanted me to log in. Does this mean that any member here with a twitter account can tweet any original post from this site? If so, maybe someone needs to rethink that button.

5. Not a Lone Skum fan?

Darn that dang autocorrect did it again!

6. I'm going to wait and see what happens to Twitter.

Right now, I use it to keep up with a group of "Spyro The Dragon" fans, but if it goes too political, then I'll quit.

I also like the videos I see there, a lot, especially cat and kitten videos.

7. I have had an account for years and I deactivated this am on the news.

8. Same here. I don't do any social networking.

DU is as close as it gets. When I open up and OP that has a Twitter link I just move on.

I might add ... one thing that turned me off against Twitter here is the posts that have "Check this out" or "Here" or "Cool" or something similar in the subject line and then the only thing in the body of the msg is a Twitter link with no further explanation. I wish there was a way to filter out crap like this.

10. What pisses me off is that everytime someone posts a comment that

has a twitter account attached to it, twitter drops a cookie into my account. I go into my Safari preferences/privacy/manage website accounts and delete the cookie. I don't like twitler,facebook,instagram looking over my shoulder..
I could block all cookies but that would be a pain..
YMMV
