I stopped using my main account long ago. It stressed me too +much. It took too much of my free time. I always had the feeling I _had to_ +keep up with it. Now, deleting it was only the consequence. My AD account I +still used occasionally, but keeping only this around felt wrong, too. + +The main trigger for this was Twitter changing its TOS and Privacy Policy every +once in a while, and I don't want to read and accept those changes every time. +Also, the layout changes, ad insertions, and weird-by-default-trending timeline +are annoying too. + +So now I'm completely on Mastodon. +[@uvok@vulpine.club](https://vulpine.club/@uvok). + +I also tried installing Friendica on a shared web hosting to run an instance +myself, but it threw weird error messages I didn't find a solution to.
