Switching to Mastodon
Well enough is enough, so I have decided to switch from Twitter to Mastodon. Why? I will let you decide.
I have followed this advice and created the immutable Mastodon handle @oliver@puppycrawl.com
, backed by this file, which you can search for on any Mastodon instance, and it will redirect you to wherever I decide to host my identity. Currently this is at https://theblower.au/@oliver - which I chip in $2/month to keep going.
I have not deleted my Twitter account, so I can keep my handle if Twitter ever comes back to being reasonable again. But, I have deleted all my remaining tweets. Note, I have been using TweetDelete for a long time, I never had tweets older than 3 months anyway.
