Twitter is the cancer of social networks

Deleted Facebook and IG years ago. Only left with Reddit and Twitter.

On Twitter I only follow accounts from my city, local police force, traffic reports for my area, weather alerts, etc. Useful, time-sensitive stuff for my day-to-day life. I never check tags or trending stories or whatever. Just boring, "responsibly adulting" kind of stuff, like a tweet from my city saying that garbage collection is running late, so this way I don't call the city to complain my garbage hasn't been picked up yet.

On Reddit I use the shit out of RES and block everything that doesn't interest me. And also block toxic users/bots/etc. It's mostly science stuff with cute animals and "wholesome" type of posts.

Social media are tools. It's up to the user to decide how to use them.
