The end of Twitter?

It certainly looks like the end. Having made 6,600 posts on Twitter from February 2009 to September 2024, one could appreciate its brevity and simplicity. A comfortable ambience seemed to surround its use, but on 17 May 2024 it ceased to exist as a domain. Its rebranding to "X" has proved a disappointment. The ambience felt has not survived the change. I've now joined Bluesky. Playlists continue to be published on my 'blog at www.trevox.uk along with other posts and events.
