We're blocking twitter at our house

> It is easy not to use Twitter. You simply do not use it.

Sorry MM, this is not true.

DU posts often have embedded links to twitter that auto-load when you open the post. And the OP's are often not labeled as linking to Twitter. So just opening a "cute video" or "funny meme" post on DU is enough to send traffic to twitter.

And, yes, I checked with the other household members before throwing the switch. I've been talking about it for months. And yes, I closed my Twitter account the day Musk bought the thing, but keep seeing twitter stuff here on DU.
