I uninstalled it and I don't miss it. Honestly I was just using it for porn because it was less toxic than the rest of Twitter, which is saying something.
Sounds a bit like quitting smoking cigarettes, except for on weekends.
You don't need to keep rotten cold turkey in your fridge. You can just throw it away and eat something else that won't make you puke. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_turkey
I finally permanently deactivated it when I came across bestiality on X. I reported it under one account there at least a dozen other accounts. The women and the animals in the videos look drugged and like victims. I didn’t know what country it was in so I didn’t know what to report.
My trick for that is putting the BlueSky app where the twitter app was and moving the twitter app to a separate folder on a different page, if on your phone. Eventually I just deleted the Twitter account. Haven’t missed it once.
What worked for me: when I first joined this site, I just made a rule for myself to check this site first, when I first fired up my computer for the day.
After a short while, it was habit. And then I just started spending less and less time on Tw, for the same reasons as you, I'm sure.
Ultimately, the people here and the people there want to do a lot of the same stuff to you. The difference is that we’ll get consent first, the outfits are a lot cooler, we’ll only call you slurs if it’s hot, there will be aftercare, and you can still go home after. 😉

Red MAGA gets the same vibe here on Bluesky
