I imagine amongst this crowd that I won't be the only one who refuses to give up my biometrics to X to continue to use it. Otherwise, I enjoyed my 19-ish years on Twitter.

I mean, I get it... but having principles is _hard_ - and I'm definitely not perfect; but I'm not about to knowingly support the owner of a company actively undermining democracy, enabling corruption, and just being a general piece of shit (nazi salutes, and most recently, lashing out at the Delta CEO because he called him names? Come on, snowflake). Sorry John Gruber rather have his tech fix than standing up for what's right, I guess.
