Gregory's ServerWhen Musk took over Twitter I set two tests that would cause me to leave: if abuse of underrepresented groups went up significantly and if Trump was reinstated. Both of those occurred within a week so I quit. There were a lot of things I loved about Twitter but the decision wasn’t hard for me and literally every development since has validated it. Having trigger conditions is a very helpful model. Anyway fuck that guy and the sink he rode in on.

@donaldball yup. My friend @mcfunley introduced me to this idea a while back and it's helped a lot. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulysses_pact @marcprecipice yes that was good idea. My trigger was when it became clear his acquisition would finally close. I deleted account and never looked back just like I did Facebook in 2016 @marcprecipice I didn’t set a hard and fast rule, but what you listed are the same reasons I left. |
@marcprecipice I deeply appreciate the technique of establishing boundary conditions for oneself when venturing into unknown territory. It helps avoid the apocryphal frogs in slowly boiling water phenomenon.
