It seems like the only function of twitter at this point is for people to escalate fights in order to create “gotcha” tweets. That plus Twitter’s overall strategy for influencing the election meaning I’m shadowbanned and throttled for my posts makes the platform rather useless for what I need — to promote the books.
I’m going to try going off for a bit. We’ll see how this next crowdfund launch goes. If it’s lower, maybe I’ll reinstate it for promotional purposes, but the platform seems to be an utter waste of time at the moment.
If you want to stay in touch, comment here where it’s a controlled environment better for dialogue and not the “gotcha” mentality.

I guess I’ll see you around elsewhere, then.

I think we all gotta kinda detach from these big tech sites. It’s a slow process because we do gotta sell but I think that site’s the least useful of them.

Still have discord and other places. You could try minds, see if there will be an uptick there.
Jared Anjewierden says
twitter really is just a cesspool
I’ll bet your productivity goes up, not that you seem to need much help in that department.
