I dropped twitter cold turkey about 1 or so months ago. I feel less informed about unimportant stuff. I hear way less about Musk. I hear way less about the minutiae of politics that won't matter 3 days from now.
I catch up using post.news but it's not nearly as active.
I miss twitterduring games. I miss the truly hilarious and talented accounts like the pitchbot or the football coach but overall to hell with musk and zuck

I met the former president of the A2 school board at a gathering (not politicsl, surprise birthday party) about 1 year ago. She said no pay. Quick Google said it was 130/month.
