It has been, for the longest time, a great platform to connect with independent and on the ground journalists and scientists. It’s vital information.
But I feel the same as you, it’s going down hill [b]fast[/b] and the amount of toxic and racist/hateful/far right/anti-science ideology is gross. It’s actively being prioritised.
I’m looking for a good alternate, but haven’t found one yet. I’m open to suggestions though!

@JaggedLittlePill I tried Mastadon and Threads, neither had the same offering.
What I hate is Twitter was and could still be such an amazing platform. It still is if you’re connected with the right people, and aren’t shy with the block button.
The only thing dragging it down is Elon…

@HippyChic I feel I am blocking so many.
I am definitely not shy with it. I tend to get caught up with some of the comments and retweets ..its a hell to block them all.
I did try mastadon and threads too, those were the two I couldn't recall.

@JaggedLittlePill Do you find really weird bot accounts have increased too?
Like, I have accounts which are clearly pictures of porn stars, but they’re liking loads of my tweets, messaging me, trying to interact… it’s like, I know you’re some bot or some weirdo.
If you do find a good alt, let me know!!

I took out an account when it was new, and I stuck with it for a few weeks, but I got bored with it and stopped.
I never did get the hang of how to use it.
It's been years since I used it. I don't even remember my account name!

Couldn't agree more. I'm pretty much done with social media and the damage it has caused.

It's a mess. I'm on it and I should avoid the idiots and just stick to the women there

I thought the ones with rational brains never signed up in the first place. 😉 But yeah, with the second hand info I get, and news about Elon ... times for it to vanish.

@NudasPriest The before times were not like this.
(THE before Times is how I shall refer to everything prior to 2016) 🤣

@JaggedLittlePill How about further back ... 'The Dial-up Days'?

Let me add Islamophobia.... Homophobia and trans hate....the Website is a cesspool of hatred. Lies. Violent rhetoric.
