Deleting your Twitter account can actually make a difference.
Every time someone opens a link or searches for an old thread in which you participated they will not see your tweets, the entire experience will be broken and they will hate Twitter for that.

thank you for showing me the way to nostr π
more than 1 year without twitter feels so great
Canβt log in because I burned the 2FA number I was using to log in. Didnβt want to give them one more ounce of my energy. You both have made me reconsider.

NOSTR ONLY π«‘
AsΓ es
GM. PV. Fuck the suits. Nostr since 2022 and no Twitter for over a year. Feels good man Pepe
Fuck off
Freedom only.
This is the way.
Deleted twit yesterday, today #onlynostr
#Nostr Only π«‘π§‘
nostr best for us.
Gm
Been over a year since I deleted twitter π«‘
I'm sure my 15 real human followers there will miss me
Yea but how will they know how your trade is going?
The bots π€ will miss you as well. I swear itβs around 80-90% bot to human, especially if youβre a small account. π€£
Only #nostr π«‘
Jack: twitter is the only one that allows a choice in the first place.
Still deciding..
the only thing stopping me is some scammer taking over my jb55 handle. Maybe deleting all my tweets is the way
Just tell some ordinal haters that they don't know what the fuck they're talking about and get deplatformed. Much easier IMO. π
I don't know what really happens when you delete, but I just tried to take @ODELL's handle and couldn't. It's been over a month already.


I have a handle I deleted in 2019, and itβs still unavailable.
@fiatjaf any luck snagging this ODELL twitter handle yet?
I did
I tend to stay away from bitches ............nostr is satiating!
I donβt know If you know it or not but X is a whole lot better than Nostr to protect the freedom of speech in PRACTICAL TERMS. So why would I delete the account. Doesnβt make any sense.
Yes, reaching people is far easier on Twitter, so far.
The inadvertent result of the "Nostr only" mentality is the silencing of all dissent on large public forums.
Nostr is good as an alternative but having multiple channels of communication is ideal.
Exactly
Just make sure before deleting you let everyone know how your trade is going.
Would be rude to leave all those nice ladies hanging
What is Twitter? π
30 days countdown has commenced π
People will hate Twitter for SUSPENDED accounts
People will hate authors for DELETED accounts

Ohh boy you're calling for people to go on the offensive!
Exatamente! πͺπΎππΎπβ‘οΈ
That is a pure waste of time .. because if you did that , next thing you will do is to delete all your unused email accounts .. then the unused spam emails in the ones that you use ..
Fixing the past is a never ending struggle .. one should never try to change the history once couple of blocks are cast :-)
just move on ..
They closed my account. I don't care anymore anyway...
Nostr only π«‘
Inspired by you and @ODELL, nostr only π«‘

When I switched to nostr the first thing I did was delete my Twitter account. Havenβt looked back. Iβm not sure how everything works here, Iβm a Gen X musician with no coding skills, but the spirit behind everyone here feels right. I feel like weβre all on the frontlines of the biggest war against humanity and all I can do is bang on a drum. π₯
Thank you for doing this.
Lieutenant Valeris: 400 years ago on the planet Earth, workers who felt their livelihood threatened by automation flung their wooden shoes called sabots into the machines to stop them. Hence the word "sabotage."
Uhuru: We are experiencing technical malfunction. All backup systems inoperative.
Chekov: Excellent. Uh, I-I mean... too bad.

Nostr is great but it isn't 'there' yet. It's still a niche place for crypto aficionados.
This is only because Bitcoin has been a failure so far.
Harsh words. Failure or just on adoption curve?
Failure. Bitcoin was build for one purpose : Where are the middlemen ?
This is an attack on Bitcoin.
Leaving twitter = entering Galts Landing
Still, we have a few squatters here
never had a Twitter, but nostr has been quite the experience since I've joined.
What did twitter do?
Leave Elon's walled garden and take your goodies with you.
EXIT.pub is a tool by @pablof7z that allows you to import your Twitter tweets into nostr.

Naw
Keep a positive experience for those who seek out your tweets, and explain your reasons, and provide an offramp there to an onramp here.
Right. Also you need an account to see X content. You don't need it here
Good content belongs to Nostr, open and for all. See everything, and join only to participate.
Absolutely
But we should start ranking our nostr content and profiles.
Whenever my friends and family search for me online they should see my NPub instead of X or LinkedIn link.
This could be an effective strategy to advance Nostr.
God Knows Best.
Iβd rather spend energy making nostr better than making Twitter worse. π€·ββοΈ
I accomplish the same thing by just periodically nuking my old tweets. π
Great point that I hadn't considered before...
