Summary: Tux Machines recently joined millions of others who had already quit Twitter, including passive posting (fully or partly automated)
As noted here some days ago, Tux Machines had officially left Twitter. Now we’re decommissioning what’s left and invite others to quit similarly. Tux Machines actually exited all forms of social control media as they’re volatile and generally a waste of time, never mind many inherent issues, especially for people who actively “engage” there. In fact, “momentum” is never a good excuse for anything, let alone staying in such nefarious sites…
=> noted here some days ago | many inherent issues
Tux Machines was there for 12 years and now it’s the end.
A last reminder to leave:

With updates stopping around the middle of May, the impact on visibility can be seen.

Nothing of value lost. █
