I'm considering deleting my twitter account. Any experiences with doing that? Will it cause depression and other side effects I need to take into considerations?
I hardly use it anymore but a lot of my connections are stubbornly staying there and have not create an fediverse account. Will I regret it - Did you and for how long time? #leavingtwitter #twittermigration #FOMO #skolechat

@Ove as a first step, make all your tweets private by changing their visibility in the Audience and Tagging section of your privacy settings.

Then logout of all of your devices.

In one month decide if you want to kill it for good. I stopped using most of my accounts there. I only use one now and only for specific purposes.

I’m not sure that I’d ever delete my account as I can see reasons for needing it in the future and I also don’t want anyone hijacking my old screen names.
