I'm not happy to delete my #Twitter account yet because I invested money in 3rd party service to manage it (tweet wiping so I could go public again to help me find more #neurodiverse or #autistic people online - hey y'all!), but I made decision today to uninstall the Twitter app on my phone & only use Twitter on my PC.
I've had Twitter push notifications turned off on my phone for ages, so coming to #CoSo that doesn't have push notifications as standard, wasn't huge shift thankfully! 💙
When I learnt of #decentralised social media years ago, I tried places like #Diaspora* (long form) & #Mastodon (microblog), but found them kind of barren in comparison to other social media I was using, especially Twitter. So eventually both accounts got deleted.
I haven't forgotten how these decentralised options operated but I felt wary about going back to them when latest Twitter events happened. Then I came across #CoSo & read its history with #Mastodon. I then wanted to give CoSo a chance.
