1/ Today was the first time since 2020 I was able to access my bird account. I walked away from all social media in 2020 because it was toxic. Bots spamming my posts about how Black lives mattered, which I had always agreed with. Yet every few minutes for days on several posts I was spammed. The negative energy I was trying to ignore just wore me down. Then the adware was out of control on top of everything else.
2/ So last fall I started a new account because I couldn’t sign in to my old one after the 2FA was only allowed for premium accounts and it wouldn’t let me get in to the account to turn it off. I wanted to contact a friend I had in the Navy, an then I just let it sit. In January I wanted to see what others were saying and feeling about the election. I am a huge Apple News + user so although I read events I wanted to see beyond just the facts. So I logged in to the new bird account.
3/ I tried following and connecting with accounts that I had interacted with in my original account. Nobody remembered me except for a handful. So I followed recommended accounts which several I recognized from the past. I’m not sure what happened but it wasn’t the same. Real hate was everywhere, sexy photos gone and guns everywhere. I didn’t understand right away that there was more organized religion at play then I witnessed openly. Jokes didn’t land the same.
@SatuUnelmia You’d think he would have kept the sexy photos
