Why I don't quit Twitter.
Okay, this is a continuation of my last post. You know? In my last post, if you haven't read it, I was rambling about social-media... and I said that one of the reasons to use Twitter is for the feedback you get. I started thinking about this and realized that I don't even get that very often. I know, I am a small account and I don't play the "try to be funny at all cost" game that everyone else seems to indulge in, but then, if I don't get that feedback, why haven't I quit? It's obvious that there's something I was misunderstanding about myself.
I think, if I close social-media, it will be harder if I ever want to get back into social-media. It's stupid because I know it means nothing, there's nothing there most of the time, and when I find something — it's not something I wouldn't have found in any other way. The probability of getting "discovered" is slim, and when you do get "discovered" it doesn't change anything other than the number being higher. Right now, I think Twitter is the main way someone can find my website, but it doesn't have to be; there are more ways to share my site that doesn't involve using mainstream social-media. Maybe one day I'll be large enough for people to shill it for me... Damn... I'm lazy, can't do shit, not even for my own good.
I'm thinking of quitting Twitter, isn't that obvious? I just don't do anything there. Just waste time most of the time, I don't even share the vapid opinions. So I'm thinking of quitting. Would you care? Who are you? Why are you so interested in what I do? Whatever. You know, if you are so interested in me that you read my blogs, then I think you are way beyond the point of needing me on social-media. 90% of people there haven't even clicked on my site, let alone read one of my blogs — you are a special cookie.
There's also another benefit from me quitting Twitter: these kinds of posts would stop to exist! Think about it, how could I complain about social-media if I am not part of social-media? My experience without using it is fine, it's just a matter of actually putting an end to it. Is it okay to just leave? Realistically, I know it doesn't matter, because what is there doesn't amount to much. Don't get me wrong, there are people I like there, but all of it is rather irrelevant. Some of those people even have their own blogs and sites, therefore there is no need for me to follow them.
Hope to make up my mind... otherwise the next 80 posts will be about social-media.
