      It’s the principle of the thing. I’m not going to delete myself, pretend I wasn’t there for all those years. The record stands. (Except for any media posted prior to 2014, which now exists only on my personal cloud storage, I guess.)

        More power to you I guess, I think our brains just work differently on this subject. I used TweetDelete and nuked my entire account a few months back. I was going to let it just sit there with no activity but then he did another stupid thing (I forget which thing) so I wanted my content completely off the platform.

      I can’t speak for the previous comment but in my case they wanted me to remove 2fa (or pay to keep it) just to log in

      I didn’t remove it, and I’ve never been back
