Oh the irony!

I stopped using twitter mainly because of Alex and other similar figures in the python community.

I quickly found out that twitter(or maybe the social media in general) brings the worst in people. I was following people because of their status in the software community and I hoped that I might get informed about tech stuff directly "from the source".

Instead, what I got were stupid jokes, rallies against "hostile" people that used "he" instead of "she" (oh the horror!) and other political nonsense.

I put up with the brain farts of people I used to admire only for a few months. I then decided that twitter probably isn't for me.
