I deleted my account when Musk announced he was going to buy it and even then i barely visited the site or opened the app, then moved on to Reddit and now i'm here and if someone posts something short to read here then i'll read it, otherwise it's not important and not worth the effort.

Long text is not important? Or long text on Lemmy is not important? ๐Ÿค”

If they copy/paste the whole thing that was on Shitter then i'll read it but if they copied only a part then that's all i'll read.

Ah, okay. I thought you meant that long posts in general have no value, not that you were talking about copying stuff from Twitter! ๐Ÿ˜…

[โ€“] ieGod@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

If we're bring really honest most posts regardless of length dont really have good value. Facebook, twitter, reddit/Lemmy... we're addicted now but we'd be better off globally without any of them.

Yeah i'm not dealing with that shitshow.

I mean outside of everything else it was never my bag. Feels to cult of personality to follow people. I like it by subject like forums do. I mean it makes sense with things like youtube where its content driven.

I hope you mean when he bought it, not when he announced it. He announces a lot of things all the time which never happen.

Nope i deleted it when he announced it because i didn't really need it, otherwise i might have waited a bit and i'm glad i fucked off when i did.
