My twitter archive (2010-2023)
To mark 20 years since Twitter was born, I’ve decided to rescue and share the archive of everything I posted during my time on the platform.
It’s a bit sad to see how a network that was so positive at first—allowing you to interact with people in your field you didn't even know, build communities (or spark revolutions), and even connect with your favorite authors—gradually turned into a toxic and divisive site, dominated by narcissists and people looking to lecture you on something you didn't even do. And all of this was before it was renamed X, I suppose because the previous management had already realized how profitable polarization could be. Without a doubt, the final straw was the new owner and an algorithm custom-built to amplify extremism; that was when I decided it was time to delete my account.
Since I couldn't bear to completely lose that slice of my digital history and interaction with the world, I've decided to give it a second life. Through the following link, you can browse the complete archive of my tweets and retweets, sorted by date and with various filters to help you navigate them easily.
