To each their own but I personally believe that’s sound advice.

(And therefore I’m a little bit ashamed that I have hard time avoiding Mastodon and Twitter. Soooo much new stuff, all the time – not super high quality, though…)

Well, avoiding twitter is easy. Sadly it's relatively often one comes across great things to follow, let's just take @pcwalton as a recent example. :)

There are loads of smart and interesting people on Twitter. I don’t deny that. I have just grown tired of microblogging in general, and Twitter in particular. The overall signal:noise ratio is just too low, IMHO.

I was trying to cut out "stuff I do on the internet habitually", i.e just scrolling. Twitter is the least missed item on the list. But I seem to slip back onto internet habits time and again.. What has once been won must be won again.
