I deleted Twitter last week because I found myself working harder to be clever and cruel instead kind. Social media is everyone screaming and very few listening. In fact, those with the loudest voices (politicians, entertainers) listen least. I haven't missed it at all.
It also consistently amplifies the angriest and least reasonable voices from the other side, so you don't get to spend any time listening to folks who could actually teach you something new.
