Well, I wasn't actually disregarding it, I thought it was something you said as a meme.

Regardless, I never liked Twitter, even before Musk purchased it. It was never worth going on, and I'd always hear from 2015 onward what was "going on on Twitter" in all sorts of non-Twitter stuff, like different social media sites, radio deejays, movies, the news, and billboards. I hated it so much. I was hoping for Twitter's downfall being something like, say, Twitter being taken offline, or a better site appearing, and I am not a fan of Nazis and billionaires, but since it's gone, I am now vindicated. Although I went to Bluesky afterward, and although it does embody what people liked about Twitter, I don't gel with what people liked about Twitter. It's for squares. It's for normies, for regular Joes, for the suburban wife with 2.5 kids who loves football and shopping for wine. It's for married couples who always follow the law and believe that Hawaii should remain a U.S. state, whose sole exposure to Marx comes from seeing counter-terrorist PSAs. It's simply not for me.
