I'm mulling the consequences of someone squatting on my handle (which was used a lot in articles, presentations, etc.). Maybe I should just nuke it and not worry about it.</p>
<p>If you want to remove your X account but are worried that someone might register your username later, do this:</p><p>1. Open 2 different browsers in their private windows<br />2. In the first browser: Log in to your Twitter account.<br />3. In the second browser, go through the account creation process, add something like "Deactivated" as a name. Skip everything else.<br />4. On both: Navigate to Settings and privacy.<br />5. Under Your account, select Account information.<br />6. Update your Username to something different.<br />7. Save the changes.<br />8. Immediately rename the other "Deactivated" user name to your own username.<br />9. Take a full data backup<br />10. Continue on deactivating the real now renamed user.</p><p>By altering your username and email, your original handle becomes available for immediate use so you can register it to yourself as an "empty shell" account.</p><p>I just proofed these instructions working by finally deactivating my account. Haven't posted anything this year.</p><p>I will not spend any thought ever again to Truth Social, Gab, X and dark onion websites. They are all the same - not healthy for anyone. Please leave now.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/X" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>X</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SocialMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SocialMedia</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Twitter</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Xitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Xitter</span></a></p>
<p>More or less stopped using X in 2022, but now that I have not made a single update for over a year, I have finalized my statement: X finally deleted, for good. I will not support X, Gab, Truth Social or any other criminally extremist alt-tech social media.</p><p>For X: You should be sorry.

<p>Trump supporters are rejoicing that he's negotiating with world leaders to end wars, as though he's their messiah, but this will eventually backfire against them. China & Russia had prepared for a multipolar world against US hegemony. They had been waiting for Trump's victory.</p>
