I anticipate 75% of all new people will bounce back to X because they are hooked on the doomscrolling. It takes a good amount of time and deleting your account cold turkey to shake the addiction. But, they’ll be back in 5 months wondering why they left in the first place.

You will stay once you realize, that is all theater and it's not worth your attention.
I don't understand why people use X or Instagram. Or even WhatsApp, all stupid people use those platforms, it's like login in with a vaccine certificate and they talk about politics and sports all day.
Came back after a year of absence. UI and speed improved a lot (Primal 👍). But still network effects for X are huge.
That addiction connected sense of deprivation lasted a couple of weeks for me. 😉
Yes the addiction will definitely kick in and people will go back and forth. It’ll be a struggle, but hopefully we can kick the addiction at some point.
People get hooked on the drama. It takes a while to separate from it. 🤙
Hm, dont think I will delete Twitter. Im still interested in whats going on in the world and not inside a sealed ecco chamber which nostr is atp. Not saying it wont evolve but ignoring the world outside bitcoin is not the way imo
I don't watch politics to worship anyone, neither to uphold the political system. Simply staying informed
doomscrolling is real the emotional trigger addiction engineers over there do a good job
Ah, right. Haha I nearly forgot that Twitter doesn't have that "feature"
