X nuked my premium account out of nowhere

1•proc0•38m ago
Just sharing to vent a little, but mostly to warn others and also if anyone has suggestions of decentralized social media apps.

It could have been a mistake or maybe my account got compromised, I guess I'll know at some point later, but it's incredibly frustrating there is zero communication, and it just blocks my account from any device.

It feels like being locked from your own rented house. Yes it's not my house, but I was renting it (paying premium subscription), and there was absolutely no warning or communication.

I don't what steps can be done to prevent this either. I'm afraid of trying to create another account in any other social media now. I'm thinking of doing Fediverse/Mastodon and just having my own website.

Anyway, watchout if you have an account. I was literally just posting project updates and commenting on engineering stuff and then I refreshed the page and now it's in limbo potentially gone forever.

you got ejected from the hive of scum and villany. On the whole, I'd say thats a net positive even if it doesn't feel like it.

Why does this surprise you? This is what the Fediverse and AT Proto were designed to prevent.
