       This is the last day of my Twitter account. I have over 52K followers there, but I can't remain on a platform that pays people like Andrew Tate to post. I do this knowing it significant limits my reach in the academic community, but the standard you walk past is the one you accept.

       @thesiswhisperer tate is part of some fed grift. I don't think it's a huge shocker big platforms allow feds to use their platforms, they don't really have a choice.

       @thesiswhisperer honestly it's a good thing different communities are having to look for better ways than some obscure platform to organize themselves.

       @thesiswhisperer - it's a good thing to do!  I had ~50,000 followers and I quit the day Musk took over. I was addicted to Twitter so it took a while to adapt, but in general my life has become better - for example I spend less time on nonsense like seeing how many people like my tweets... though I still do that here when I'm bored.
