We've a work policy at work of signing up to these things immediately to secure branding. There could be some of that in it.
However considering Twitter Ireland is something like max 5-10% of population getting 2-3% of America on board is approaching success.

It's nearly a year since i nuked my personal acc - i stll manage a work acc there but even that is coming to an endgame - it's kinda the squirrell game that's keeping that one running. There are defo 3-4 people i got on with on twitter where those aquaintances never really transferred to instagram which i sorta think is a little sad because i like internet people - so maybe if you are gonna nuke it think about finding a way to keep those little friendships trucking along. I kinda didn't really announce on it i was leaving at all so people probably thought i was sick of thier shit.

I definitely noticed a lot of completely open mainstream people talking about ditching twitter on youtubes and stuff recently. Fuckit like, it's a right wing newspaper, it's the 11 nazis at the table - it's been gamed and it wont improve.

Simply removing the quick link for Twitter from my phone - the one generated in the browser based on frequency of visits - had caused my browsing of twitter to fall by 80%+

I was on Instagram yesterday and a preview thing popped up for it. Seemed to be a load of people giving their hot takes on whether Kurt Cobain was trans or not. Didn’t entice me to go further.
