It's not just lemmy that's benefiting from Elon Musk.

Just deleted my Twitter account. Of course, the app gave nothing but errors so I had to do it on desktop, but it’s done!

So now you have an ex-Twitter account. Or an X account for short.

Maybe Elon was truly 200 IQ with his naming

I deleted all of mine and move to mastodon when I heard Elon was possibly going to buy it. I'm glad I did, because who knows what he has all implemented since then.

I am sure my account was never "deleted", even under Jack, but at least I know I gave the best chance for my data to be deleted.
