It’s time. Your Own Place has made the not-so-difficult decision to leave X, formerly known as Twitter.
Personally, when I started out in 2013, I enjoyed Twitter. It was a place of connection, learning, ideas and positive novelty. We even picked up customers and partners who interacted with our work.
We have seen this be eroded over the last year. In a world of polarised keyboard warriors, it has become harder to find the joy and positivity. Instead we are bombarded by toxic hatred, lies, adverts and bots.
This is not something I want to endure for my own wellbeing or benefit and therefore why would I encourage the team to have to interact with it and indeed those we exist to support?
Furthermore, gaining any analytics about our posts and their reach has been made impossible.
We are leaving with immediate effect and look forward to engaging with you on other platforms and maybe face to face 😉
