Heyo,
it's time I stop using the platform for good.
For a while now, I've been seeing it degrade into a cesspool of misinformation, lies, and general awfulness. At the same time, its 'quality' filters deemed me irrelevant, so even if people follow me, they don't see whatever I post.
This is not a political decision and I won't be moving to Parler or Gab or Minds. I'm simply moving away from Twitter, as I did from Facebook 4 years ago for similar reasons. So, if you follow me there, I won't be posting anything anymore. All the pics that eventually show up will be from an IFTTT applet.
For now, the only general purpose social media site you'll find me on is Instagram. Even still, I recommend you follow me here on NG, dA, or ArtStation, even Reddit.
Do I think this will ruin some things for me? Yes, but this shit is awful anyway as is.
Could I not detach myself from the account? Don't know.
Is this permanent? Yes.
Cheers & I love ya,
Cyan

I've never understood the appeal of Twitter, but I'm sorry to hear that many artist like you had it really rough in these times... All I can say is Godspeed man, I'm sure your fanbase will follow you wherever you'll go!

Thank you! I'll try to get things done the old way: being good without an algorithm randomly favoring you.
