A good read! Once I think I got more reliable tools to help me replace my use of these tools, I’ll do the same. I wish I could do it for Instagram too but they aren’t open in any way https://jlelse.blog/posts/deleted-twitter/ (https://v2.jacky.wtf/post/42053b05-9018-4663-89ca-bf0d1a14fb15)
@jalcine To #deleteTwitter is a good move, but his reasons aren't so noble (more about self control). The noble reason to rm #TWTR is power-abusing #centralization, hostility toward #Tor users, & forced disclosure of ph#.
@jalcine if an anarchist puts self interest above communal good (#tragedyofthecommons) then it doesn't seem to follow to go vegan (which favors the greater good but makes it much more difficult to meet your own nutritional needs).
@jalcine it's despicable that government reps are using the exclusive private #walledgarden of #TWTR rather than open-to-all #decentralized platforms like #gnusocial, #mastodon, & #pleroma for public announcements.
That’s sound but from what I’ve seen, as a anarchist Black vegan, most people optimize for their own interests over any sort of communal good largely because it’s easier/safer for them and their loved ones. So while I do agree with your stance, one less person on there is one less metric for them to collect. (https://v2.jacky.wtf/post/06be3384-dab9-4a9b-a709-6504cf8a6b6c)
