My X account was suspended. I’m told it was for “impersonating another account” (I used the X logo as a temporary bio photo). I’m sure it had nothing to do with posting that the entire Trump administration was working for Putin. 🙄

Just found you here. Followed you on Twitter, but rarely go there any more. Am visiting my trans son and his partner, and he suggested I look for you here.
Sorry you're going through this, Daniel. For me, the fact that you—likely the Canadian Anglican with the highest social media profile, and one of the best ambassadors out there for sensible Christianity—can get suspended by X tells me all I need to know about that place. You're braver than me!
I reported someone for death threats and was told “it didn’t violate X rules”. Then I was given a warning because in my response to the person who threatened me I called them “an idiot”.
Death to faggots = fine.
You’re an idiot = against the rules.
Yes Chrome as an extension that helps with that. Another person shared the “how’s” with me. IF I can get my account unsuspended, I will try and use it to connect with more accounts on here.
I left voluntarily, but I don’t understand the jubilation, really. There are fewer nazis, but I’ve lost 90% of my support network, so it seems odd to celebrate being able to scream into the void. 😕
I think you might be misreading this as being about ego. There have been a lot of activist and support communities built on twitter, which are now decimated by Musk’s takeover. It takes time to re-establish those here. Some people see more value in staying and fighting. That’s valid.
Yes, was possibly reading it that way and maybe my reply was a bit harsh, but it also read like an overblown sense of self sacrifice. Life is full of difficult choices and for many people, given what X and Musk have become, the choice to stay is unconscionable
I quite understand - I held on for a while, but the n*zi salute was the last straw. I’m not exactly a load-bearing support for anyone, though! There will be those who stay out of sheer despondency and exhaustion, though. 😕
Congratulations on maintaining absolute purity in everything you buy, use and support.
Jesus, who is apparently just weeping over my X account, must be extremely proud of your self-righteousness. The Gospel definitely has him applauding that. 🙄
It's not about purity or self-righteousness, but about choices. I think Jesus may have mentioned something about it at some point, but I could be wrong
I’m so glad you’re here. It was a negative in my decision to leave that cesspool as I was always inspired by your content. Hopefully you get the choice to do both again.
I’m sorry you are having to deal with that. Make sure to tell all of your connections to find you here. Hopefully they can migrate before your account has further issues. Wishing you well!
My gosh. There’s so much chaos. I left because the platform kept unblocking and following musk and trump with my account and I was done with it but I appreciated those who were able to tolerate staying to be a voice of reason and love.
Yeah, it shocked and sickened me enough I couldn’t keep doing it. I appreciate those able to continue being a light in the darkness.
I’d blocked all of them months/years ago and they started showing up again in my feed again. When I went to block them to stop it I discovered I was following them.

I think it’s really THAT (more than the use of their logo) that got me suspended.
Death to faggots = fine.

I’m not. I have 115 K followers there and many contacts and connections I didn’t want to just lose.
I felt it was important to have diverse voices there - despite the toxicity.
So no, it’s not “yay”.
I agree that whether you stay or leave should be your decision. You've been a bright spot there.

Also….maybe do some reading up on Bluesky.
Stuff like that would be to just give the appearance of support for these people based on number of followers.
Glad I deleted my account
