Well. Took my farewell of the Other Place just now. Thanks, all, for welcoming me here.
@Paulatics congratulations! I’m still sitting on the fence but I’m only checking the bird app maybe only once a day now.
@chad I left the archive intact. But I deleted my app and shortcuts. Next, my daughter is going to change my password and not tell me what it is! That should help my resist the temptation to peek. I just didn’t want to delete all that public record - nor allow someone to take my handle & impersonate me.

@Paulatics @chad I’ve kept my account active but deleted the app from my devices. I have to be intentional about going there now. The big change for me will be no more doom-scrolling on my phone 😌

Did the same with Facebook a couple of years ago, along with deleting 90% of my friends list and muting every single one that remained. I saw a marked improvement in my mental health.
