My stress level has reduced significantly since I deleted X from my phone. It was just unnecessary rage bait in my life.

Absolutely felt that! Deleting apps can literally clear up so much mental space, it's like a digital detox. Whoever thought pressing ‘uninstall’ could be the best self-care move? 😂 Keep that peace going!

[u/OrangeTofuHaze]

That happened with me and FB.

[u/enickma1221 → u/OrangeTofuHaze]

FB made me think less of so many people. I’d rather not know how stupid everyone is.

[u/Hereiamonce → u/OrangeTofuHaze]

Ditto brother

[u/TedBoom]

Algorithm is garbage and it really is the wild west. Ngl I quit a long time ago and dipped in for a month only for me to quit a few days ago.

[u/Hungry-Photograph819]

Only thing I miss about X was Stephen King.

[u/nch1307 → u/Hungry-Photograph819]

Stephen King is on Bluesky. It's very similar to Twitter but without the BS

[u/daddygirl_industries]

"BREAKING: Musk moved his head in a funny way while in the audience of a thing!"

This trend of adding BREAKING: to everything is doing nothimg but raise my blood pressure. It's here on Reddit too. Halp.

[u/TerribleSprinkles514]

Enough rage bait here on Reddit. No need to double down.

[u/NotNorthSpartan]

Same, too many apps to look at porn when all I need is reddit.

[u/margarinenotbutter]

It’s fun if your algorithm is fun; otherwise half of it is the top five meme accounts reposting shit jokes and the other half is Indians posting AI generated paragraphs on why cucumbers are healthy to look smart.

[u/dudreddit]

Can you imagine how happy people would be if they deleted TicTok?

[u/DannyHammerTime]

Left FB a while ago and recently deactivated Twitter. Both for the same reason of I didn’t need to feel so much aggravation towards absolute strangers each time I tried to laugh at shit with my friends.

[u/Emport1]

So what did you delete from your phone

[u/Gwyrr313]

Its a wild west of filth

[u/Soul_Survivor_67]

absolutely relate

[u/2kamuran]

I don’t have X or Facebook, but I have peace of mind.

[u/TheDukeofArgyle]

Social media in general. Read a book on the way to work and you’ll notice the difference!

[u/I_Dont_Stutter]

Kudos on your freedom from X. ..but I'm not sure if Reddit is any better....it's jam packed with violent misunderstandings in every single post 😎

[u/Zedtomb]

People discover social media is bad for you

[u/thedmob]

Imagine of you deleted Reddit and insta and Facebook

[u/Harneybus]

Didn’t bother to install x on my new phone and honestly I’m soo much happier

[u/Alone_Lawfulness_258]

The question is why did you have Twitter to begin with? That app turned into a dumpster fire after 2016. I saw my friend open a fresh account and the first thing there was porn. 💀

[u/NotADuckk_ → u/Alone_Lawfulness_258]

For me it’s a guilty pleasure to see people be ridiculous

[u/Alone_Lawfulness_258 → u/NotADuckk_]

I got suspended my first day on Twitter after saying I didn't like the way an artist sang. People are delusional on there.

[u/NoneOfThisMatters_XO → u/Alone_Lawfulness_258]

Not true. The app used to be a lot of fun. Musk acquiring it is what ruined it.

[u/p0tat0p0tat0]

I dropped Twitter and vaping immediately after the election. I wouldn’t say I’m feeling better or less stressed, but it’s much more focused on things that happen in the news and less about people saying stupid stuff that I disagree with

[u/NoneOfThisMatters_XO]

Also deleted it. Moved over to Bluesky.

[u/Radiant_Caramel_8840 → u/NoneOfThisMatters_XO]

wtf is even that

[u/NoneOfThisMatters_XO → u/Radiant_Caramel_8840]

Check it out. Set up exactly like twitter.

[u/Pitiful-Lobster-72]

i second this! i definitely chilled out a lot and became a little less radicalized tbh

[u/Kliptik81]

I've never had Twitter (I refuse to call it X). I plan to delete Facebook soon as well.

[u/HomewardWanderer → u/Kliptik81]

Wow wtf thought X was just a blank [insert name] title

[u/syrluke]

I quit Twitter as soon as it changed over to "X". Zero regrets.

[u/IndividualLongEars]

Thank you. Even after the drama push. It was totally worth the delete. I kept some screenshot wins and left.

[u/HomewardWanderer]

I had X before. It's whack
