I kept mine active but haven't used it since Musk took over. I just changed my name and bio to my Mastodon account so people could find me. I used it for work and had a lot of people find my content through it, so I didn't want to just kill it. I also didn't want someone claiming my username because I use the same one on pretty much all of my work socials. It got to the point last week that I'd rather not be associated with the site, even if people know it's just to point you to my Mastodon. Hitting that delete button felt good, but I wish I had done it back in 2022.
