There used to be a Twitter link, to my profile

First and foremost, this text may be seen from some as passive aggressive. It may is, but I'm being respectful here, not swearing or anything.

Very short version why I left Twitter

Elon Musk does weird and nonsensical changes to it.

Long version why I left Twitter

• He is making the Platform worse for normal, non-paying users
• Removing features that was previously free, requires now a Twitter Blue subscription
• Twitter Blue aka "verification" fiasco itself, creating exactly this "Lords and peasants"-system, aka it is more corrupted than it was before
• The algorithm is pushing those, who are paying
• Also the algorithm is pushing Elon Musk tweets by default (Cause he don't have enough reach by default, before these big brain changes, huh...)
• The algorithm is punishing those, if you're muting(?) or blocking them, really demote them into oblivion
• Elon Musk acts like he is not an adult
• He apparently claims he is the "smartest" person in the building, if he is in the building, which I don't see that at all
• Since the tookover, Bots, Cryptobros and NFTbros are more active than before (maybe just subjectively), which he claimed he wants to fight them on the platform, again, I don't see this
• Like the reason above, he is likely to push his "Twitter Blue"-subscription thing to "fight" bots, well, it works horribly
• The prices for the API access are just lunatic, like ????
• Elon should pay those who are actually spending their life and time being on there, instead of paying him
  (Oh, he's so broke, have some sympathy. 🥺 No, I don't, thanks. 🙄)
• Can we please all stop call Blue tick users "verified"? There is nothing about being subscribed a verification. They're subscribers of Twitter Blue. Elon is deceiving you believing being subscribed automatically means verified. No, it's not.
• Also he is not consistent if you should "Get verified" or "Get subscribed". FYI.
• Also also, he is being constantly inconsistent.
