After more than six months of inactivity, I finally deleted my Twitter account.
I’ve tried removing my social media accounts before, but something always kept me tied to them—mainly using them for app development. When I attempted to delete my Facebook account, I had to manually remove over 20 failed apps and transfer admin rights for various pages. It was exhausting.
So, I’m no stranger to stepping away from social media. But today, I’m saying farewell to @hazaveh—something I never thought I’d do. Twitter was my favorite platform.
Unfortunately, Twitter is no longer the place where you could freely share thoughts and engage in meaningful conversations. The feed is cluttered with attention-bait garbage, and even if you find an interesting tweet, the comment section is a mess—buried under nonsense videos and irrelevant replies.
Then came Twitter Blue, turning the platform into a pay-to-be-seen system. Even your own followers can’t reliably see your posts unless you pay for visibility.
Unlike other social media platforms that lost their identity by adding repetitive features like Shorts, Twitter took it to an extreme level of nonsense after Elon Musk’s acquisition. His drastic changes, mostly driven by revenue growth, have turned Twitter into a chaotic, broken mess.
What was once a space for real conversations, spontaneous thoughts, and meaningful interactions has become a dumpster fire of algorithm-driven nonsense. The platform now prioritizes sensationalism, paid visibility, and engagement farming, making it impossible to follow the people and ideas that actually matter.
Twitter was the only place where I could curate my feed to follow content I truly cared about—people, ideas, and discussions that resonated with me. But that version of Twitter no longer exists.
So, here’s to moving on. Farewell, Twitter.
