          So then tell me, how does it make you a dunce if you have an account and don’t use it, or if you have to use it for business? Consuming content on there is pretty stupid because every alternative is better and not run by Nazis, but just having an old account?

              I signed up for Twitter in 2006 to see what it was all about before it was super popular. Thought it was stupid then just because of the character limit, and haven’t touched it since.

              Guess I’m a dunce because of shit that started happening a whole decade later. 🤷🏻‍♂️

              Even if I haven’t touched my account since 2021? I can’t even delete it easily, because xitter is banned in my country

              I have a Twitter account that i haven’t posted on in years. I only use it to view posts that my friends have sent me. I keep telling them to stop using Twitter but they won’t listen. My usage, if anything, is costing Twitter money to serve me the content on my browser that does not allow for ads or tracking.

                That’s like hanging out at the nazi bar because your friends like the cocktails.

                  You know, i really underestimated how much Lemmy users operated on kneejerk reactions with my comments here. I guess there nothing i can do about that though. Seeing this kind of reaction to a perfectly reasonable opinion is just kind of exhausting.

    Except that usually who got a dunce cap was ashamed, and didn’t pay for the “privilege” of that

    Might as well be a swastika armband at this point.

      I’m sure it can be done, but I’m not wading into that cesspool to find out.
