I’ve deleted all my social media apps (including YOU - LinkedIn).

I’m trying to really see and feel what’s actually missing in my life and trying to build it. Right now I just want to see what my friends are up to in a non-curated way.

Well done, LinkedIn is a cesspool. Ironically the only thing I am using right now is Twitter, since a lot of interesting people are still on there. There's a lot of negative but balance as well. For every MAGA or ESR's comments, I balance it out with Miguel de Icaza's views on Gaza, etc.

You should be able to use Twitter without justifying yourself

[bdavisx]

No, I would say at this point a lot of people who say they use twitter feel the need to say they aren't a nazi nor do they support nazi's. YOU may not feel that way, but a lot of people do, and they don't want to be associated in any way with endorsing nazi's or musk.

Hell, what a time to be alive.

"Should" being the operative word. It was easier a few years ago

Yeah you are right. But there is some really toxic stuff there too that isn't going away. You can't really filter it.

I just succeeded in doing this https://nashkabbara.com/addictions.html

From what I’ve noticed from my friends we all tend to have different addictions. For some it’s YouTube for others Instagram, etc…

that's really cool, instead of installing instagram daily - I found it easier to visit instagram.com. It's so bad that you'll only use it for a little bit before you have to close it
