I rejoined Twitter mostly to hang with writer friends, but I’ve noticed that their engagement has gone down a lot since Musk took over and with it mine as well. It used to be that I would pop into Twitter several times a day, now I’ll go days.

I can’t speak to hate speech (other than seeing reactions to it showing up a lot in trending topics) as I’m liberal with my use of block to keep Twitter as non-toxic as possible.
