I quit a long time ago without even meaning to.

There was just less and less content to keep me interested while more ads and "recommendations" kept taking their place. At some point I was just forcing myself to open the app each day and just stopped.

If an app, website, or game won't respect my time, why should I give it any?

Im so thankful I have been off of it for over 10 years. I had a username that was not my real name and they blocked my account and asked for a photo of my drivers license….

So glad that happened, I don’t even miss it.
