So, you are going to create a bubble world for yourself where you see/read/hear nothing inconvenient to your views.

That is how people become brainwashed.

Try moderation of some sites instead. You do not need to go daily and read every story.

So you’ll just be clicking on Twitter/X and Liberty Daily from all the post here on FR?

For me, X and FB most other sites are interior for news and commentary since they usually are very limited on the length of responses, and often exclude links. Fox news included.

I respect your decision and it is completely up to you but....

Perhaps you were using it wrong?

I have 3 different X profiles. One follows college/olymipic wrestlers and MMA fighters. One follows country musicians, producers, podcasters, etc... One follows republican/Christian/libertarian/nationalist accounts.

You can switch between them and if you are on the “Following” tab, you only see the people’s posts who you follow on that profile.

You could easily setup a profile to follow 40 or 50 Christian accounts so that you would only see their content when you were logging into it.

But whatever you feel is best for you is what you should do. I just wanted to make sure that you understood there were options.

I joined Twitter a long time ago but never posted there. I didn’t get on twitter except to follow a link once in a while.

After Musk took over, I found myself able to still able to get on X following links and everything else. I have no blue check because I don’t post there so it wouldn’t be worth it.

Good part is I never became addicted to it. So many people and too much content takes hours to scour.

I don’t blame you and it sounds like you have a plan. I hope you can get a good semblance of your health back too.

Never signed up for Twitter or FB. If there’s something of value on either one, I assume a link to it will be on FR.

X is a huge benefit for us

But if it’s interfering with your faith so be it

My wife is addicted to instagram

I get it

X is the goat

My conservative children glean it all day and send it to me

I posted an article yesterday with Crowders piece on the latest release of the Nashville school shooter manifesto

The mod nixed it

Don’t know why lol

Are you a mod?

X is sixth most used website on the planet

After google youtube Facebook Wikipedia and instagram

Its benefit to us under Elon is inestimable

No question of that

I think this is more about compulsion in the way of Gods time than the site itself

X more than anywhere else gets our sides info out there in spades

We are lucky to have it

That and podcasts on whatever platform

Liberty daily and CFP and Breitbart and Bongino
are my go to sites and none are perfect

As well as pods on various platforms but mostly YouTube

Megyn
Sara Gonzales
Bennie
Tucker

Shawn Ryan

Chris Williamson

Etc

It’s all how non lefties stay informed

I thank God same one you worship

For it all

It’s minimized corporate deep state media and tech bros and Hollywood influence best we can for now

This is why they howled when Elon bought twitter

They knew

Say your head is in the right place staying close to the Good Lord!

I quit the Social Media some years ago. Tried Nextdoor, loved the local aspect and the Marketplace, but didn’t long before it turned into a black hole. Facebook wants an ID and a bill to confirm your identity these days. Man o man...

This fine site, Feeder RSS, Craigslist, and text messages is all I really use.

Good for you. You’re better off free of it. I’m one of those few who never joined Twitter, Facebook, or the like. I never understood the appeal.

I don’t often go on X but I do check Liberty Daily. If I want adult opinions from posters Free Republic is my go to.

I also deleted my Rumble account. I got tired of it as well. If posting link there I’ll surely view the video, but I don’t need an account there.
