Welcome to My Blog!
Greetings,
This is my first post on my new blog!
I found the Write.as ecosystem after having been on Tumblr for over a decade and suddenly having my account terminated by their new AI for absolutely no reason whatsoever… I contacted Tumblr support but haven’t gotten an answer yet.., and my account is still gone… I suppose it didn’t help that I called Tumblr “evil” three times in my email, but they deserve that designation after ruining the platform with AI.
Tumblr was the last “social media” site I was using apart from YT. I erased my other social media profiles and deactivated my accounts. The increase in surv3ill@nce, lack of pr1v@cy, the reckless rollout of AI without regulations, and now (finally), the lack of an0nym1ty on other sites ultimately drove me away. The rapid “enshittification” of social media sucked out all of the fun…
I crave authenticity and true, genuine connections, but the more time I spent on social media, the more isolated and fake everything felt. I saw the writing on the wall and stopped using all M3t@ services since November, 2024 (-_-’), and I haven’t missed it one bit! In fact, my almost constant anxiety has lessened!
As for this site, I chose it because I believe in and agree with the principles of Write.as. I needed a new platform to blog on since I don’t want to spend any more time or effort on Tumblr because I cannot be sure their AI won’t delete my account, should I make a new one…
This blog will cover a multitude of topics and will serve as my safe space to share my thoughts, discuss my daily life and the matters I care about, such as: musings, dreams and fears for the future, life stuff, music, art, nature and the outdoors, current news, p0lit1cs and worrying trends, culture, and anything else that I want to get off my chest or share.
For now, I am excited about finding this platform and hope I'll be able to use it in its current form for years to come. I hope this platform never jumps on the AI train other than to mock the tech and greed behind it.
Thanks for reading! I hope you have a wonderful day! :)
