Heads-up, if you, like me, wanted to keep your inactive Twitter account around.

"Twitter's official policy now considers a user inactive if they fail to log in "at least every 30 days." An archived version of this policy shows that as recently as April 19, the policy had been to log in every six months to keep an account active. Twitter seems to have quietly updated the policy within the past few weeks."

Musk issues ultimatum to inactive Twitter users: Log in or be purged

"We cannot release inactive usernames at this time," Twitter's policy still says.

I'll probably log in a few more times. I don't think I'll bother for my bots.

I do think it would be funny if Musk changed the inactivity policy to require tweeting at least once every 30 days. I dare him!

Personally I'm trying to log in once a month and like some friend's tweet, as a more tangible presence.
