Appreciation post: How that Twitter ban in 2020 changed my whole approach to posting

I remember sitting in my apartment in Austin back in July 2020 when I got a notification that my account was suspended for a week over a joke about a politician. It was the first time I really felt how fast these platforms can just shut you up with no real explanation. That incident made me start saving screenshots of everything I post and keeping a backup list of alternative platforms now. Has anyone else had that moment where one suspension made you rethink your whole online presence?

Start saving copies of everything you post and backup your contacts somewhere you control.

People don't realize how fast things can just disappear online these days.
