- Such activation, deactivation, reactivation, deactivation seems alright on paper.
- But the truth is it is like a countdown which is just intolerable.
- I mean why you need to have an account when you have to wait for full four weeks for activation and deactivation. It is madness.
- Better to not have account at all.
- Or better still have an account but don't follow any one and don't use it.
- Only when you have Twitter installed on phone you will use it.
- Else you will use it when you follow certain people and Twitter sends you mail.
- Yes Twitter does that.
- When you follow some people, Twitter sends email with "highlights" of what they have been been posting on twitter.
- Then you can click those links and read on twitter.
- But when you do not follow anyone Twitter will send no email and when you do not have Twitter on your phone you do not read anything.
- And you have still the ID which you want and nobody can take it.
- Now I was relying on Twitter for News when I unfollowed the porn accounts.
- When I do not follow anyone how do I get the News?
- The answer is Google News.
- I have been getting news through Google since 2010 end.
- In 2013-14, I did not have Twitter and used to type news.google.co.in
- There all the News was there, I had to just change the edition and get the news of that region.
- Since my language is English I could only access and enjoy the feeds from limited countries like Australia, US, UK, Nigeria, Malaysia, Pakistan and some more apart from India.
- The feed of "other languages" were out of the question.
- Now subsequently over the years, Google Chrome has managed to build a tool where entire webpage is translated.
- So I re-installed Chrome.
- Yes I had removed Chrome because I had observed when Firefox Quantum came in, it was not working fast enough but web reports mentioned it otherwise.
- So I suspected that "Chrome" was slowing down "Quantum".
- Let us face it in an alternate universe all people would be wearing the same clothes and using the same operating system and/or browser.
- But this the world we live in.
- And Google Chrome is jealous when we use Firefox Quantum and wants to tracke what we do with it and hence slows it down.
- If we use Chrome there is no slowing down as the tracking happens by default.
- So the solution was that to Reset my PC which has Windows 10 and that option is available and so begin fresh with Firefox Quantum.
- Microsoft Edge is there anyway by default.
- I will continue in part 3.
